and i want a pony. there's a long list of Cygwin packages that are currently needed, and likely Cygwin is the most convenient way to install all this stuff: setup-x86.exe -P autoconf -P automake -P bison -P cabextract -P doxygen -P flex -P gcc-g++ -P git -P gnupg -P gperf -P libxml2-devel -P libpng12-devel -P make -P mintty -P openssh -P openssl -P patch -P perl -P perl_vendor -P pkg-config -P python -P readline -P rsync -P unzip -P vim -P wget -P zip https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Windows_Build_Dependencies well a few of those look spurious, e.g. gcc-g++ is no longer needed, and i wonder why gnupg or openssh or rsync are on the list... >> Probably bash or some other POSIX shell too, surely? > > Yeah.
