This is my first package submission. Diffstat built right out of the box, and I found it useful. In fact, here's all I had to change to package it:

Why not: +1


Esp. useful for those huge patches after autoreconf.
If it doesn't get +5, this is a good candidate for the external packages list at http://cygwin.com/ported.html

Well, thanks for at least giving a nod to the fact that the rules have changed, but has it occurred to anyone that this is part of the Fedora release (at the very least) and so does not need +1?

This package just needs to be reviewed for correct content.  It is
automatically approved for inclusion in the cygwin distribution.

Ah, I didn't see that. Fedora is one of those systems, which I try to avoid. But the sf.net webservers will switch now from debian to fedora which will give us all headaches. (and enlightment?)

You don't need to have FC2 installed. http://rpmseek.com/rpm-pl/diffstat.html?cs=diffstat is a good way to figure this out.

Ah, thanks for reminding me on rpmsearch. I forgot that.


The problem I was talking about was off-topic. That about 85.000 projects will have to use Fedora now. https://sourceforge.net/docs/A04/
Fedora's Apache2 is the only system I know which doesn't run my app OOTB. Even MS IIS and more obscure platforms do. <rant off>
