Right -- all of this is in your cygcheck output.

Right. So why would you expect to find the include file there as well?

Why do you think the file you need is in libjpeg62? The only file in that
package is /usr/bin/cygjpeg-62.dll, which is what "cygcheck -l" shows you.

Nope, never too late. Try searching for the needed file (jpeglib.h) again
on the package search page (<http://cygwin.com/packages/>), and install
the package that actually contains it (according to your cygcheck output,
you don't have it installed yet).
