Thanks.

Frankly it all looks overcomplicated to me.  The current system of "here's
a postinstall script, run it once some time after the package files are
installed" has always completely met my needs.  But I get that other
packages have stronger requirements, so I don't object.  

As long as cygport will handle the details of naming the script, maybe from
hints in the cygport file about the priority or order, then it doesn't
matter to me which proposal we use.

Andrew
