# Many packages are in subdirectories of release. Try this instead:

Thanks, and I also found the --recursive option. Now I'm running this:
genini --output=setup.ini --recursive --okmissing=source release
This gets close to 1300k but not quite. There are small differences that
apparently result from some sort of postprocessing, such as:
* If a package has no "requires" tag, it gets one with "cygwin"
* If a "requires:" tag does not include "cygwin" it gets one
Apart from that many "source", "install" and "version" tags are different.
What is the script that the official setup.ini is generated with?
Is this list the right place to ask this? If not, where should I ask?

Jens
