Hi,
I see the cygutils package has been orphaned, perhaps explaining the
lack of response to the below.
A related question then is that the vanilla mkshortcut built from the
latest source package does not
seem to perfectly match the behaviour of the binary. Is there any way
to review or reproduce how
the binary package was built, or any other way to verify that the source
and binaries do match?
Thanks
Anthony
