It's actually hard to see how this was not intended if one of your guys starts a thread and you and (for instance) Roland chime in in a really pushy way. > Just the bigger picture: > [...] We all have a day job as well! > cygutils-extra There is no cygutils-extra package either. > > If you want that package in the > > distro, do it yourself and become Cygwin package maintainer: > > > > https://cygwin.com/packages.html > > Is it wise to put a simple utility in a separate package? Yes. Even simple utilities should have a (willing) maintainer. You can ask the maintainer of the cygutils package if he's willing to maintain this additional tool, but it's just as well you keep it under your own (or Roland's, being the developer) control.
