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. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
