RE: cygjpeg6b.dll not found

Goodness!!

> cygjpeg6b.dll is part of the jpeg package of Cygwin.
WindowMaker depends upon this package.
As noted in another post, WindowMaker also depends on the tiff package.

Anytime you suspect you are missing a .dll go to http://cygwin.com/packages/
and search for the missing item.
This page will tell you which package contains the file.

Apparently jpeg and tiff are not part of the "default" cygwin installation.

Many of us have a more complete installation of cygwin, and it is often
difficult to know which packages you should automatically have, if you have
correctly installed cygwin and are correctly using the
(offending/complaining) tool.

Now that it has become evident that WindowMaker also needs these
(non-default) packages, it could be so-noted in Howard's setup.ini file.
(IIF he wants to.)
