Comment:
Hmm. Every one of the files, itemized from line 4, through to line 23 of your
log, should have been removed by the step at line 2. The extra directory name
separator, between C:\MinGW\, and /bin/... should have no effect whatsoever, so
I don't know why removal would have failed ... the usual cause is that the
files were not originally installed by mingw-get; another possibility is that
the original installation record has been deleted, or corrupted. However, I'm
not convinced that either cause is the explanation, in this case, because,
having just installed ncurses-6.0-2-bin on to a Win7 VM, using mingw-get, and
then upgraded to ncurses-6.2-1-bin, I see the same sequence of failures.
I will need to investigate this further, but to complete your upgrade, you may
wish to manually delete each of the conflicting executables, as identified in
your log, and then force a re-installation, (from the command line, noting that
$ represents the prompt):
$ mingw-get install --reinstall ncurses-bin

Ticket details:
Here the log copied straight from the 'Details' window of the installation
manager showing information of the only package to be upgraded. It appears that
an additional path seperator in the paths breaks things.
Thanks.
