For eample coreutils-7.0-2-src.tar.bz contains: coreutils-7.0-2.cygport coreutils-7.0-2.cygport.sig coreutils-7.0-2.cygwin.patch coreutils-7.0-2.cygwin.patch.sig coreutils-7.0-2.src.patch coreutils-7.0-2.src.patch.sig coreutils-7.0.tar.lzma coreutils-7.0.tar.lzma.sig I got the coreutils-8.2.tar.gz for gnu.org and I assume I apply to stuff above to it. But how is that done? There isn't a makefile. Is it done manually? I assume they is a automated method but it isn't obvious what it is.
