That's great news (user feedback)! I just make my first .cygport file and surprised by policy on .cygport file names. I worry about maintaining clean VCS history of project and renaming files just for version update seems wrong practice in VCS. It is possible to workaround this issue be generating .cygport file during build process. But now I just place 'PACKAGE.cygport' into my source code tree. > These variables are intended to replace PN/PV/PR. > What does that mean?
