If it doesn't, it's a bug, and the setup.hint should be fixed. >(Yeah, it's possible some of my own packages violate this -- tell me and >I'll fix 'em) I have something in my queue which generates these setup info dependencies automatically. It's a change to upset2 which allows scanning tar files and adding dependencies automatically based on certain filename patterns. I also have a package which will cause the dir file to be updated automatically if an info file changes. I'll try to finish this up in the next couple of weeks. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
