Hello
I was installing a new package (aspell) and the latest updates. After
the file download, the obsolete packages were removed. Then the
installation step started. During iirc aspell's installation, I got
an error prompt from rapapp.exe (c++ error), after which the
installation procedure stalled. I canceled the installation (cancel)
button after waiting 10-15 minutes.
How can I evaluate cygwin's state, and the state of the updates. How
do I recover/resume the update?
Rerun 'setup.exe'. You'll have to re-select the packages you want to
install though. Sounds like you want to uninstall BlackICE for the
duration of the install though so that it doesn't get in the way.
