   Please stop all Cygwin processes and select "Retry", or select
   "Continue" to go on anyway (the file will be updated after a reboot).

and a similar message about the misc fonts.

- Reboot did not help
- After uninstalling the packages, creating the directory
   /etc/X11/fontpath.d and installing them again,

This looks like a packaging error. Yaakov, shouldn't installing xorg-x11-fonts-* create /etc/X11/fontpath.d if it doesn't exist? From


https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=etc%2FX11%2Ffontpath.d&arch=x86_64

it appears that terminus-fonts is the only package that creates this directory.
