Looks like a nice package so +1 from me. I've made a review and I'm a bit surprised about the content of usr/lib. There's a static lib called libBLT30.a and a symlink to ../bin/cygBLT30.dll, but there's no link library to link against the DLL, libBLT30.dll.a. Does that actually work for linking against the DLL? I thought the .dll.a lib is needed for that. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Co-Project Leader mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Red Hat, Inc.

Does that actually work for linking against the DLL? I thought the .dll.a lib is needed for that. libtool (e.g. building clients of this library) looks for either a DLL or a import library. I just made a symlink because BLT didn't make the import library itself. The symlink is just so when clients go looking for BLT in lib/ they find something. I can make a .dll.a if you prefer. I just wanted to get feedback right away and so made this shortcut.. Thanks!

Anyway now it makes a .dll.a, and the symlink for the .dll in lib/ is removed. http://www.santafe.edu/~mgd/cygwin/blt/ Thanks again. P.S. Any thoughts on HDF5? I need that for another package I'm making.

So we just need 2 more votes. P.S. Any thoughts on HDF5? I need that for another package I'm making. Not really. 3 votes and a GTG review required as usual.
