At a minimum, I think that's quite an oversimplification and perhaps factually untrue? Have you used a Linux distribution for example? There's a single release number, but its really rather meaningless, because the first thing you do is install updates to various packages (possibly including the kernel). That's very similar to cygwin. You have a base version of the cygwin DLL, and version number for each package. I suspect that the best you'll have is to explicitly test and ship your product with a specific version of the packages that you use. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
