I wonder how much "cygcheck -c" is reliable.

For example, the libmpfr4 package.
I delete /bin/cygmpfr-4.dll and /etc/setup/libmpfr4.lst.gz

As a result, I can't compile sources with gcc anymore due to the missing
cygmpfr-4.dll.

But "cygcheck -c libmpfr4" still indicates OK...


Well it has to use something to validate the package.  The data it
uses is the list of files in the .lst.gz file you deleted.  So it
can't do allot of validating without that metadata.  But I suppose
it would make sense to not return "OK" if the list of files is
missing.
