Oh, I figured it was the default since that's what we use on the Wiki. In that case, I agree that we don't need a patch it.

I decided to explore this myself, wondering if I should file a Cygwin bug report. However, as I'm sure Enrico knows, it's a bizarre Windows quirk. Remove execute permissions from a .ttf file, and Windows simply refuses to recognize it as a font. > A more ambitious goal would be adding a cygwin-package target such > that "make cygwin-package" in development/cygwin builds a lyx package > ready to be installed through the cygwin installation tool ;-) Yes! > Give me the necessary time (don't hold your breath, though :) and I'll > see what I can come up with.

I posted my personal packaging script earlier, but made some subsequent corrections. Attached is the newer version, now filled with comments explaining what I'm doing. Hopefully it'll save you lots of time! To generate an official cygwin package, we might want two targets: cygwin-binpackage and cygwin-srcpackage. -Ben
