I  am using directions from http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/binary/mswindows/cygwin/#icon and stuck at part 2: GRASS GIS installation. Upon adding the user URL  http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/binary/mswindows/cygwin I get the following error:

The reason is that we cannot generate the missing .sig file which only Cygwin
maintainers can do (thanks to Glynn for offlist explanations).
Hence, in the case that you encounter this error regarding missing .sig file,
supply the -X (--no-verify) command-line flag when using Cygwin's setup.exe

I have (hopefully) improved this step in
http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/binary/mswindows/cygwin/
--> Installation
  --> Part 2: GRASS GIS installation:
      --> Since we cannot offer a signature file ...

Best,
Markus
