Again, there is no "development" package in Cygwin. There are individual
packages for things like "vim", and "bash", and "sed", and "sh-utils",
etc. There was a suggestion of implementing "profiles" for Cygwin that
bundle various packages for specific usage patterns, but nobody has gotten
around to implementing it yet.
