So when is someone proposing (ITP'ing) at least the mysql-client and libmysql packages?

On my various (lots) installs, I never had a hitch. I successfully built php 5.1.2 against it (and others which I don't remember). I remember doing the same with mysql4 and php4, but can't recall the exact versions. I was in the process of building some emerge-like script (and learning python at the same time), which helps me rebuild stuff from source tgz and change 'use' flags easily, and ideally script and automate a whole cygwin install+compile, but RealWork(tm) prevented me to come to something close to distributable. I'll certainly continue someday, but I wonder if anyone willbe interested by such a script in the future (when it'll be usable by someone else than just me)?
For emerge-like script look at cygport, which was ITP'ed last week in cygwin-apps. This is stable and I already used that for the quite complicated postgresql packages. -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://spacemovie.mur.at/ http://helsinki.at/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
