Bug #: 31172
           Summary: Cygwin 1.7.1 fails to install packages, complains
                    parse errors
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.8
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

use `winetricks -q --no-isolate cygwin` to install cygwin.

An warning dialog says:
"The current ini file is from a newer version of setup.exe. If you have any
trouble installing, please download a fresh version from
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe"

After that, an error dialog says:
"
Parse Errors
http://mirros.163.com/cygwin//setup.bz2 line 1221: syntax error, unexpected
STRING
http://mirros.163.com/cygwin//setup.bz2 line 1221: unrecognized line 1221 (do
you have the latest setup?)
...
"

The workaround in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21206#c6 works for me

Looks like you're using a really old cygwin with the current package file,
that's not going to work.

The current cygwin problem is bug 24018.

Confirming on Windows, the old cygwin installer doesn't work as well. Invalid
bug. Thanks!
