It appears that some recent change to setup.exe has unintentionally made '--quiet-mode' incompatible with '--packages' for command-line installs. A similar problem was reported here: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2011-12/msg00244.html Using current setup.exe version 2.761, this no longer works (although it still works with setup.exe version 2.738 from a few months ago): setup-2.761.exe --quiet-mode --site ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/ --root C:/cygwin-1_7 --packages cvs That command takes only about one second, and the local subdirectory for downloads contains only setup.ini . According to setup.log.full (which is only about 4K), setup.bz2 is downloaded; then it says: Added manual package cvs Changing gid back to original Visited: 0 nodes out of 1948 while creating dependency order. Dependency order of packages: Changing gid to Administrators Ending cygwin install If '--quiet-mode' isn't given, then everything works (and cvs is installed from '--packages'): setup-2.761.exe --site ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/ --root C:/cygwin-1_7 --packages cvs ...so that's a workaround, but '--quiet-mode' is much nicer for scripted installation. If '--packages' isn't given, then the base system is installed correctly: setup-2.761.exe --quiet-mode --site ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/ --root C:/cygwin-1_7 ...but, even after the base system has been installed, rerunning the original command: setup-2.761.exe --quiet-mode --site ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/ --root C:/cygwin-1_7 --packages cvs doesn't install cvs. The resulting setup.log.full says Visited: 50 nodes out of 1948 while creating dependency order. but the "Dependency order of packages" list doesn't contain cvs. I've saved setup.log.full from each of the four attempts above in case further information from them is wanted.
