Would it help to add "xinit" to the requirements for tcl-tk and other packages that now require an X11 server? I know that there are some use cases where "xinit" isn't actually required. But would the benefit (fewer problem reports from new users) be worth the cost (installing "xinit" for some users who don't actually require it)? In the case of packages that have both a console mode and an X11 mode, perhaps the package could be split into separate packages, as was done with "git", "git-gui", and "gitk"? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
