Thank you, Linda. When I saw the error message after installing some
packages to satisfy the dependencies, I was wondering why the rpm
package still complained about the already installed packages. I was
not aware that cygwin and rpm were not sharing the 'database'. Thank
you for making it clear to me.I will try the src.rpm when I am free.
So with all of the back and forth about this, you never realized that
Cygwin's setup.exe doesn't use RPM? Wow. Wasn't the fact that there
are no .rpm files in the distribution a big enough clue?
