IMO we should have a fully self-hosted distribution. At the moment, with the _single_ exception of postgresql, every package here can be rebuilt from source, to a version equivalent to what the package maintainer posted, on a cygwin system, with the tools that the distribution has. So yes, UPX should be a package before it's used to make packages. I vote for including UPX... and Lapo makes two. Do we need a third? And are there any objections? Rob
