During my porting package to cygwin, I was inspired by the initial script in 'Cygwin Package Contributor's Guide'. After a while I had written a tool to automate most of the porting work hopefully in portable manner (see section 'Directory PACKAGE-VERSION/CYGWIN-PATCHES/ and optional scripts'). It somehow works now for all my portin projects, which have different requirements. If there are brave persons to try it, I would like to hear suggestions and how comments on success or failure to use it for general porting help.
Manual page is here (also included in package): http://www.tierra.dyndns.org:81/cygwin/cygbuild/cygbuild.html I'm sure it has lot of bugs, as this is initial release. Be patient and send me bug reports and listing of: bash -x cygbuild.sh [options] commands The tool consists 90 % of bash and rest is perl, which is externally called only if needed from bash. The perl mainly holds the full manual in POD format.
