hello, world

I'm looking for lpr; the Cygwin FAQ tells me it's
in the cygutils package, but that appears to be no longer true:

4.16.   How do I print under Cygwin?
        lpr is available in the setup.exe cygutils package.

$ cd /etc/setup
$ zcat cygutils.lst.gz
usr/bin/cygstart.exe
usr/bin/mkshortcut.exe
usr/bin/readshortcut.exe
usr/share/man/man1/cygstart.1.gz
usr/share/man/man1/mkshortcut.1.gz
usr/share/man/man1/readshortcut.1.gz

There's no installable lpr package either I can find.
Am I blind or has lpr gone missing? Thanks for any clue.

Jens

lpr was moved to the cygutils-extra package in order to reduce the
number of dependencies needed during base install.
