Cygwin setup.exe has no dependency checking : - between Cygwin packages, - between a package and cygwin.dll. Therefore, you cannot just install PostgreSQL and the required packages easily. Furthermore, Cygwin does not allow the installation of Windows native packages, i.e. Apache 2.0. Therefore, I think a possible solution would be migrating dpkg to native Windows using mingw, then create a W32/Debian Cygwin package (=get rid of this horrible setup.exe) and work on Perl installation scripts like fink.
