First of all thanks a lot for your answers. After reading this I
have a couple of questions:
- Is this going to be fixed and this package will be included again in
the near future ?
- Is is possible to install previous versions where this package was
included ?, how can I get this ? What is your suggestion about
applications that depend on particular cygwin versions/packages ?.
This is important because changes/problems like these ones can make
applications fail at a moment in time.
Thanks again and regards.
Javier.
