Probably the easiest thing to do is look it up the package contents at
<http://cygwin.com/packages/>.  That should provide some clues.  Or you
can get the same information from 'zcat'ing the <package name>.lst.gz
file in /etc/setup.

Yes, you did mention. ;-)  And that it is.

You'd need to provide some details for this because, no, that's not 
normal.  Please read and follow:
