Good point. Would adding "xinit" as a dependency be a better solution? I am hoping that when "setup" informs the user that "gitk requires xinit", it might it at least: 1. Alert the user to the fact that gitk now requires loading the X server.=20=20 2. Spare the user having to run "setup" again to download the packages they need. -- 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
