Do you actualyl need a vote, even if it is "only" an upgrade of an existing package? ;-) <http://www.cygwin.com/packages/gmp/> > Anyone want to review packaging? But in fact packaging is changed quite a bit (work mainly done by Gerrit, as I said). Pretty standard "method 2", except an hack I had to do to permit its use in any directory (only method to solve a bug that Gerrit found, and I have found nothing better even if I tried, was to put in an absolute path, in order to build in a directory different from the autoreconf one; as the m4 script kinda modifies itself) This solves in 2 patches: in prep(): sed -e "/^[+]/s|THIS_IS_THE_ABSOLUTE_SCRDIR|${srcdir}|" < ${src_patch} and in mkpatch(): sed -e "/^[+]/s|${srcdir}|THIS_IS_THE_ABSOLUTE_SCRDIR|" Of course if the package is prep()area in one directory, then moved, then built, it won't work. But should work in most cases, when no ones moves it around between prep() and conf() phase.
