Sorry for the delay; I've been swamped handling the Cygwin/X transition. > I've looked around on the ports site and mail list > for some general directives on what's required > to move a port to the general distribution. > > Is it as simple as putting together a package > and [ITP]ing it on the Cygwin-apps list? I would suggest installing cygport from the Cygwin distro, then checkout from Ports SVN the lang/lua5.1 and lua/ directories. Those directories contain everything necessary to build and package the lua interpreter and a number of lua modules. (You will need to fix up the history and maintainer address at the bottom of the READMEs.) I suggest that you build lua, install it locally, then build some modules and assure yourself that everything is working. If you could let me know which modules you are interested in, we can go from there. Hope this helps, Yaakov Cygwin Ports -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Cygwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEAREIAAYFAkkjuyoACgkQpiWmPGlmQSMnAgCgkAuXBm2s8F5nhaaEJTNr7bBA lQUAoM8jg9ZtoM8/gBeR/d4aZfWhERiO =PiNz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Cygwin-ports-general mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cygwin-ports-general
