http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html has the relevant info. I'd be happy to have specific instructions there. IMO this isn't relevant for the package maintainer instructions at http://www.cygwin.com/setup.html - and there is already a link to from there. (I quote: Setup.exe has it's own homepage http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html. If you are interested in adding features to setup.exe, or in manually creating a setup.ini file, you should consult the setup.exe homepage.) > b) Is there a nice stub for such an setup.ini file? See the homepage. Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://users.bigpond.net.au/robertc/keys.txt>.
