[Mingw-users] 5.1.2 installer - problems installing Previous

[John V. <ja...@gm...>]

Hi,

Looks like I spoke to soon.  When I inspected an install of Previous,
I found it had included Current packages.  I've repeated this a few
times to be sure, and the "mixedup" log shows the problem.

Strangely enough, the installer can be made to act correctly by
pressing Back after choosing "Full".  i.e. select "Previous" (clicking
Next) select "Full" (clicking Back) select "Previous" (next) (next).
The result is the "correct" log attached.

Due to mailing list restrictions, I've trimmed both logs due to
mailing list restrictions, and attacted a diff of the two log files
(previous.diff).

Now having jumped through that hoop to install the correct Previous
packages, running the updater asks whether I want to install
"runtime", "w32api" and "core compiler".  This then installs the
Current version of this packages into my Previous environment (see
update.log).
