If that's the only reason, you might want to provide your own repository that you then use together with the main Cygwin one. > But I understand that this argument might not be very convincing. That isn't the only factor in the decision, but since we already have a bunch of XML libraries I'd personally ask what's wrong with those that the new package does better. It appears that the package is in EPEL/CentOS7 and openSUSE, so that would tip the scales somewhat in favor of including it in Cygwin as well.
