I am assuming that there should be a release\libintl3 with a libintl3/libintl3-0.14.1-1 file in it. Shouldn't there? If not, why doesn't setup show it when I switch it to FULL mode?

Since libintl is part of gettext there is no dir release/libintl3 but the dir release/gettext/libintl3.


This was also another thing which was implicit in my message but there
is no reason to anyone to have to know that.  The only thing a user has
to know is "run setup.exe to install a package".  Messing around with
mirrors and directories isn't really a good idea unless you are familiar
with the "complexities" of cygwin package management.

What is so complex with:


wget -r -N ftp://mirror.server.here/pub/sourceware/cygwin/

and use setup to install from the local repository then?
