Ticket details:
If I download the installer from OSDN.net (https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/
downloads/68260/mingw-get-setup.exe/), and run it, accepting the defaults, I
end up with the MinGW Installation Manager GUI.
If I exit the Installation Manager without doing anything, and run:
C:\MinGW\bin\mingw-get --version
I get:
mingw-get version 0.6.3-pre-20170905-1
[...]
If I run:
C:\MinGW\bin\mingw-get update
C:\MinGW\bin\mingw-get upgrade
and then run "C:\MinGW\bin\mingw-get --version" again, I get:
mingw-get version 0.6.2-beta-20131004-1
[...]
If before exiting the Installation Manager, I selected from the "Installation"
menu "Update Catalogue", then "Mark All Upgrades", then "Apply Changes",
version 0.6.2-beta-20131004-1 would get installed, as well.
