And that's where you went off in the wrong direction.  You're writing to 
the Cygwin mailing, but that's the MSYS2 package repository.  Those are 
two different environments, so you should _not_ mix up them up like that.

That's a valid reason to get yourself a local version of minizip, but 
_not_ a reason to just plunk MSYS2 files into the middle of a cygwin 
installation.
