It seems to me that the cygwin packages are installed in different 
locations than the locations they would go if ./compile make make 
install are performed on the source.

Is that true and if yes are there anywhere instructions where these 
locations are so that they can be pointed to applications depending on 
them, when such applications are compiled. At the moment I am trying to 
compile Cyrus IMAP and as it seems I have to compile from source a lot 
of stuff it requires because things do not seem to find the cygwin 
packages, though these packages are installed.

Thanks,
Iv
