It's an onlist topic. Because the two things have to happen concurrently. Cygwin has over a 100 packages, of which maybe 40 provide libraries that would need to be relocated. The mechanism for relocation is quite simple: every package maintainer repackages their package with the libraries in the new location. > The relocation that I have done merely serves as an interim solution for me.
