Everything older than about a year mostly looks like that. Before having the CI there wasn't a good way of figuring out the dependencies, so almost nobody bothered with it. It's still incomplete since the dependencies pulled in by cygport will be assumed by the package (which works only as long as these don't change). > Is there a way of determining desirable, useful, or additional > dependencies? Usually the upstream documentation tells you their preferences. Somtimes packages bundle dependencies, then you have to be careful to direct the build to use the system libraries. Additional dependencies beyond those I tend to avoid. I see you pulled in gnutls/nettle, I'd rather use openssl unless upstream recommends against it. Then you can look for the build specs on Linux distributions which usually give you lots of clues (and often patches): https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/wget/wget.spec?expand=1 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/wget/blob/master/f/wget.spec If in doubt, follow Fedora (like most other Cygwin packages). > I found cygcares-2.dll was missing(!) from cygwin 32, so reinstalled > it, and libnpth-devel was not installed in either arch, so installed > those, added all the lib...-devel and tools dependencies to > BUILD_REQUIRES, and all the relevant configure --with/out-... options, > so now both arches build with only minor --version output differences. Thank you. I'm not really sure why you'd need libnpth and a bunch of other things. You might want to add libattr-devel and see if xattr support gets recognized. > Is it sufficiently worth while to resolve with a release -2 package, > as there may be no further upstream releases of the package, other > than replacement by wget2? Please re-release the fixed package so that both architectures are equivalent.
