Specifically, 423 requires lines include cygwin whereas 121 do not. setup.exe doesn't special case the name 'cygwin' at all, so it seems appropriate to explicitly depend on cygwin for any packages which contain binaries - though I'll admit that the occasional missing dependency on cygwin isn't going to cause any actual brokenness.

Please upload xmon-1.5.6-1 (new package)
I packaged the xmon program today (and used it extensively, so I know it works) for Cygwin. Homepage http://www.x.org/contrib/devel_tools/ Description === http://www.x.org/contrib/devel_tools/xmon.1.5.6.README Xmon interactively monitors the byte-stream connections between an X server and a number of X clients. Xmon recognizes all requests, events, errors and replies sent between the clients and the server which are part of the core X protocol. The contents of these messages are displayed on standard output at a user settable degree of detail from none to every bit and byte. Xmon also allows the user to select a number of requests or events to be monitored at a different degree of detail. Xmon will also block the transmission of selected requests from the clients to the server and selected events from the server to the clients. Xmon also keeps statistics of the number of requests, events, and errors received. Porting === 1) The usual Imakefile stuff (two lines). 2) Two #define changes to make sure we call fcntl(*, FD_CLOEXEC) instead of ioctl(*, FIOCLEX, *), since FIOCLEX didn't seem to be available for ioctl (didn't check any further since I knew that FD_CLOEXEC was available and the code was already written for it. In summary, very straight-forward port and package. http://homer.starnet.com/~hunth/cygwin/release/X11/xmon/setup.hint 7ab56809ff065a5e46693f49a1099f84 http://homer.starnet.com/~hunth/cygwin/release/X11/xmon/xmon-1.5.6-1.tar.bz2 3664fa042a698104a9170cecb12cb8e5 http://homer.starnet.com/~hunth/cygwin/release/X11/xmon/xmon-1.5.6-1-src.tar.bz2 21998fb605d755857e7211b1febd4b99 Harold
