Add to or define DEPEND= - note singular - for build time dependencies https://cygwinports.github.io/cygport/check_funcs_cygpart.html#robo906 some maintainers have so many packages and dependencies installed that it may be hard for them to figure out what each package needs; it would be great if this info was captured as a build-depends: line in each package's setup.ini entry. Add to or define REQUIRES= - note plural - for run time dependencies https://cygwinports.github.io/cygport/pkg_pkg_cygpart.html#robo443 cygport tries to figure these out, and the result is captured as a requires: line in each package's setup.ini entry. Note that if the cygport file defines PKG_NAMES= with more than one package, https://cygwinports.github.io/cygport/pkg_pkg_cygpart.html#robo432 then each Cygwin package should have its own <pkg>_CONTENTS=, <pkg>_DEPEND=, and <pkg>_REQUIRES= entries in the cygport file, or sometimes in a <pkg>.list file in the CYGWIN-PATCHES directory. You can submit cygport file patches on the cygwin-apps list, where discussions on building packages normally occurs. -- Take care.
