There are barriers to implementing rpm in Cygwin, the most frequently
mentioned being the fact that a cygwin process can't easily replace
cygwin1.dll or any other running executables.
If the in-Cygwin package manager can't update core Cygwin, that's not a
deal breaker IMO: there is a fair bit o

Hello folks,
I installed a fresh Cygwin 1.7 beta, and added the 'email' package.

Correction: setup doesn't require Cygwin to be closed if not working on
core packages. That makes sense.

There's no maturity requirement as such. For a package such as cyg-apt that
doesn't exist in other distros, you have to get 5 positive votes from current
package maintainers. A clear explanation of what cyg-apt does that setup
doesn't, would probably go a long way towards that.
Thanks for that

Hi,
I am working on a Cygwin package manager with an interface resembling
apt-get.
It's still a work in progress, but functional (commands below.)
http://code.google.com/p/cyg-apt/
It would be great if some folks tried out the initial release and
provided me with some feedback.
Cheers,

Hi,
I managed to get back into my bad install of Cygwin and ran
$strace svn
As you suspected a missing dependency popped up: /usr/bin/cygz.dll
cygz.dll is the only file in the libz0 package:
$ cyg-apt filelist zlib
usr/share/doc/
usr/share/doc/Cygwin/
usr/share/doc/Cygwin/zlib.README
usr/share/
Additional note for the last reply: even hacking
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2
doesn't get me back into the earlier install of cygwin. I find the
process of where "mount" gets its mount point informa

Where *is* everything?
bin has 289 files, whereas the non-beta has 1152.
So, just how "beta" is 1.7. "Alpha"?
Or am I missing something, eg there's still lots more
for me to install "by hand"?
Oh, someone tell me how to find the version numb
