Fixing apt-cyg

If your apt-cyg is not working and claiming setup.ini does not exist, it is because recently the Cygwin repositories have changed their path structure. The setup file has moved. To fix this you will need to edit the apt-cyg script which should be located in /usr/bin/apt-cyg.

Change Line #98 to:

wget -N $mirror/x86/setup.bz2

Change Line #105 to:

wget -N $mirror/x86/setup.ini

You can also try using x86_64 directory.
