Carlo,
Since you are successfully creating Cygwin packages, one thing that
would be very helpful is a detailed set of instructions for cygport to
create a Cygwin package from source.
There are instructions posted on the Cygwin website and other info
about cygport, but I have not found a comprehensive document that
makes packaging nearly "mistake-proof" for uninitiated packagers.
(Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.)
E.g., I want to create an up to date Ansible package for personal use,
as the current version in Cygwin is 2.8.4, and it appears Ansible is
up to at least 2.10.7, as that version is available in Debian
Bullseye.
Thanks.
