A new version of stow, 2.2.0-2, is available in the Cygwin distribution. This is a Cygwin-only release, that fixes a packaging problem where the perl Stow module was in the wrong location. The Stow module has also been separated out into the new perl-Stow package, which stow now depends on.
stow manages the installation of local software packages by creating sets of symlinks from the installed location (e.g. /usr/local) to a stow directory (e.g. /usr/local/stow/emacs) where the real files live. This allows you to keep packages separate, while making them appear to be installed in the same place. Andrew E.
