This is intended. To do otherwise would lead to an incorrect, circular dependency. xinit depends on xorg-server (as you must have a server to start for it to be useful), but xorg-server does not depend on xinit (as you could start it some other way, e.g. from the command line) I guess it would be nice if we had an 'X' virtual package which just depended on xinit for people who don't read documentation... -- 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
