Let me clarify. Anyone proposing to add a package to the Cygwin distro requires two things: 1) show presence in other major distro (e.g. Fedora, Debian, or Ubuntu) stable release OR 5 positive votes for inclusion. 2) a GTG review from a current Cygwin package maintainer. The fact that Fedora has some of your prerequisites only helps with the first point. Cygwin != Linux, so we can't use Fedora's packages. So somebody needs to build and ITP those prereqs first before this package can be properly reviewed. > Would you be willing to agree that Macaulay2's ITP can be considered now on its > own merits, without waiting for ITP's for those libraries to be approved?
