All right. I've simplified options to Simplify options to CYGPORT_TAR_OPTS and CYGPORT_TAR_EXT. https://github.com/cygwin-lem/cygport/commit/5a502cc84b8db0b47eae8b3571d363d106e74160 This will work: CYGPORT_TAR_OPTS="--owner=foo --group=bar" cygport baz.cygport package And if you have tar >=1.31, these will also work: CYGPORT_TAR_EXT=".tar.zst" cygport baz.cygport package CYGPORT_TAR_OPTS="--owner=foo --group=bar" CYGPORT_TAR_EXT=".tar.zst" cygport baz.cygport package Regards, Lem
