Hi Harold,
Thanks for replying so quickly! I upgraded to XFree86-prog 4.3.0-2 and
that fixed the problem. However, I am now getting this:
mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config

The XFree86-prog-4.3.0-2 package has been updated in the Cygwin
distribution.
Changes:
1) Files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config were not being included in the
Xprog.tgz file that is the precursor to the XFree86-prog-4.3.0-*.tar.bz2
package. This problem was due to using Cygwin's tar to create Xpro

Huh... this is interesting.
Turns out that Cygwin's tar doesn't work the same as the tar version
that is in the XFree86 souce tree in the utils module. I built their
"gnu-tar" and used it to build the packages and it did include the

this worked two weeks ago. The only thing that has changed, as far as I can

Huh... somebody else must have fixed this for me with 4.2.0-1, because I
have a 0 byte file on my machine but the one on sources... was 46 bytes.
I copied 4.2.0-1 to 4.3.0-1. Hopefully that takes care of whatever the
problem was.
I now have a copy of that 46 byte empty tarball on my machine.
Harold,
Could you reupload the zero length XFree86-base file?
If this is supposed to be empty then you need to create an empty tar
archive not a zero length one.
Thanks,

Good catch. This has not been reported before.

The XFree86-lib-compat-4.3.0-1 package has been added to the Cygwin
