I've not looked through that repo myself (yet, at least) but it looks like there are some patches that imply a naïve build might not work perfectly. Or those packages might be entirely obsolete... [0]: https://github.com/jaalto/cygwin-package--tig FWIW, I'd be happy to at least attempt to add this package to my small Cygwin Git packaging empire, and take responsibility for keeping it up to date going forwards. But that's only if Jari wants to relinquish that hat, and even then I think Libor clearly gets first refusal given they've written the new Cygport file.
