Re: [Mingw-msys] Problems with MSys Installer - Couldn't reservespace for cygwin's heap

[Bleriot XIII <bleriot13@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mario,

I guessed that windows update was the cause of my problems... however, I 
can't go back un-updating my laptop!!!

I would like to know whether anyone in the msys team may confirm this 
point...

Thanks again, Mario.

Bleriot.
