Missing mime types lead to broken pages in the package list.


    Hi folks,

  There are a lot of broken entries in the lower levels of the package list on
the website.  Clicking a package name at http://cygwin.com/packages/ takes you
to the page that lists the available binary and source package versions, as
before, but attempting to follow the link to one of the versions to see the
package contents works for some packages, displaying a webpage, but for others
triggers a file download dialog in your browser.  A few examples:

http://cygwin.com/packages/expat/ - broken
http://cygwin.com/packages/fcgi/ - broken
http://cygwin.com/packages/flawfinder/ - working
http://cygwin.com/packages/gnupg/ - broken

  According to wget, the working links are being served up with text/html mime
type, but the broken ones are coming down as application/x-troff-man.

  Fallout from the recent upgrade?

    cheers,
      DaveK
