Hello, and pardon me for still pestering you.
I've got a custom repo now working with setup.exe -X @
http://rubor.org/astrometrytortilla (won't be the final location).
Signatures are more troublesome. I suspect my .sig files are in a
wrong format, but can't find detailed info on what the correct

Right. I didn't intend this for the mailing-list. Also, I think I
just got the signatures working by
using --detach-sig instead of --sign.

Well, well.
I'm grateful for esp. the hours Chuck put into this, and for having at

How many

No idea.
Is this document still valid?

Cygwin is supposed to be like a Linux distro. Including packages which
come with Linux distros is a no-brainer. Including a large, specialized
package which is not commonly found on Linux and which has a small user
base is not a no-brainer.

I've updated the package as per instructions from this thread (fixed
