Yeah, but cygcheck.exe also needs to be able to, at minimum, parse the version string of a given package (cygcheck -c). We're not yet at the point of requiring setup.ini for proper cygcheck operation (and cygcheck doesn't REALLY need to know about package dependencies and -src tarballs and category information....) I don't think it's that big a deal to require cygwin packages to follow a parseable naming scheme; ours is pretty lenient...when it fails, it's not a terrible imposition to either change a '-' to a '_', or swap some digits and alphabetics within a -XXXX- word. --Chuck
