https://cygwin.com/setup.html explains how a package should basically look like. The actual packaging should then be done via the cygport tool, it makes creating packages pretty simple. For uploading a package a new mechanism has been implemented which allows a maintainer to do the upload by himself after he got the GTG on the cygwin-apps list. For inforamtion on this, please have a look at https://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/package-upload.html Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
