And that's where you went off in the wrong direction. You're writing to
the Cygwin mailing, but that's the MSYS2 package repository. Those are
two different environments, so you should _not_ mix up them up like that.

That's a valid reason to get yourself a local version of minizip, but
_not_ a reason to just plunk MSYS2 files into the middle of a cygwin
installation.
