Who is the maintainer of the NASM package? Yaakov Selkowitz yesterday created a skeleton package of NASM for Cygwin ports: http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/nasm Is there a chance this might be used to replace the official package in Cygwin? best regards, Diego -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
