A few (rather minor) notes: - I think you should bump the version number. 4.2 or whatever. - In etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh: /usr/bin/chmod 1777 /tmp 2>/dev/null This looks gratuitious. Setup itself already sets /tmp to 1777. I never heard of somebody changing the permission of /tmp to something else, so it probably doesn't hurt... - In etc/defaults/etc/profile: Just a heads-up. Be prepared to remove the entire section about mkpasswd/mkgroup checking. It won't work as expected anymore as soon as my AD integration code goes release. Along these lines, I will update the base-cygwin package not to create passwd and group files anymore. - Do we still need etc/defaults/etc/profile.d/1777fix.sh? How long has it been? Other than that, it looks good to me. I'd say, let's go for it when you're ready. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
