Hi Yaakov,
A google search turned up pages on http://cygnome2.sourceforge.net/ that imply 
that libvte has
been built for gnome on cygwin. If so, which package is it in? I like to port 
scientific and
lisp-based projects to cygwin, so I have a lot of cygwin gnome installed for 
the libraries; but I
can't seem to find libvte.

I think a posted list of the files installed in each package on cygwinports 
would be a great
addition to your site. Imagine someone like this (like ME): forced to use 
windows for everyday
work... installs cygwin to regain some unix feel in his life (everyone knows 
about cygwin now)...
wants to compile foo, but it fails because libobscure.a is missing... googles 
for
libobscure+cygwin, but comes up blank and frustrated ... OR ... googles for 
libobscure+cygwin, and
finds libobscure and obscure.exe waiting for him at cygwinports.

The cygwinports packages have saved several of my efforts, but I kind of fell 
into your site. A
posted list would really make your cygwinports more findable (OTOH, of course, 
you might prefer to
keep your bandwidth down)

BTW, autoconf 2.60 has broken cygport. As in, I have to symlink 
/bin/auto(re)conf-2.5x to
/bin/auto(re)conf-2.60 to restore functionality

regards,
NT
