It's not. But it would make much more sense to combine base-cygwin and base-passwd. Base-files is pretty low priority in the dependency order, in contrast to the other two. If we combine base-cygwin and base-passwd into one, we would have one less problem. I volunteer to combine them into a single base-cygwin package, if nobody knows a good reason why the functionality should stay separated. David, would you like to take over base-files? It's still officially orphaned... Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
