So all of this makes me want to ask the question:
When will the cygwin install support a more rpm'ish style
install so that we can know less and still pick & choose
packages.
I kind of thought that given the close ties to RedHat, that
it would have it by now...
Inspite of the missing rpm features in the setup, I think cygwin
is great. My thanks to all the developers involved.
