Hmm. A problem?

Do you mean the DLL component? IIRC, this isn't specified as an inclusive component of a basic installation, so it shouldn't be installed unless you explicitly select it, from "All Packages". > mingwrt, and w32api also installed as version 5.0.1 Okay; that's what the catalogue specifies, so there's no real problem, (other than that maybe the catalogue needs an update to v5.1). > I renamed the MinGW directory and repeated the exact same > installation with the SourceForge installer. So, I assume you now have two side-by-side installations, in different directories, each with their own local catalogues (in their respective $MINGW_ROOT/var/lib/mingw-get/data directories). It may be instructive to diff their corresponding XML files, (ignoring the sysroot-*.xml and manifest-*.xml files, which record the state of your installation). > libmingwex, mingwrt, amd w32api all installed as version 5.0.2 Once again, I'm surprised that libmingwex, (if you mean the DLL component), was installed at all, and once again, the catalogue really needs an update, to deliver v5.1, but v5.0.2 is what the catalogue on SF currently specifies. FWIW, the catalogue build system doesn't readily support parallel publishing to multiple distribution hosts; the publication rule, in the Makefile, maintains a list of files to publish, as they are modified, but once published to one host, that list is cleared, and nothing is marked for republication to a second host. Ultimately, OSDN will become the authoritative publication host, and SF will fall behind, but it's going to need some manual intervention to get there. -- Regards, Keith.
