Why does this depend on libintl1? Did you mean libintl8? Why did the package grow from 8meg to 17meg? Not necessarily a problem, if there is a good reason for it, but it seems a bit odd. > > The X11 binary: > > <http://www.zone42.org/cygwin/emacs/emacs-X11/emacs-X11-22.1-1.tar.bz2> > <http://www.zone42.org/cygwin/emacs/emacs-X11/setup.hint> The binary worked for me on XP, with cygwin 1.5.24-2. If you can adjust your packaging to use alternatives (see my earlier mail), then I think you are ready to have your package uploaded to cygwin.com, and that you deserve a gold star for taking on this giant project. Not so obvious is that since emacs has been changed so extensively between 21.x and 22.1, that all my .emacs customizations needed tweaking to align to the new way of doing things (for example, read-file-name-completion-ignore-case is new, whereas I used to use completion-ignore-case). But that is not a packaging bug, just upstream progress. > > The lisp sources (including LEIM sources): > > <http://www.zone42.org/cygwin/emacs/emacs-el/emacs-el-22.1-1.tar.bz2> > <http://www.zone42.org/cygwin/emacs/emacs-el/setup.hint> Why did the package shrink from 4.5meg down to .6meg?
