Question about packaging and cygport

[Arjen Markus]

Hello,

In the context of the PLplot project (plplot.sf.net) we are interested
in the details of how software is packaged for Cygwin, in particular
how CMake is packaged (development of this package is rather fast and
we attempt to keep up with it, so that we can clean up the various
workarounds).

To better understand the process, we would like to know, how packaging
is arranged - is that via "cygport" files? And if so, what is the
authorative location of these files (notably cmake.cygport)? If some
other method is used, could you enllighten us about the actual
process?

Regards,

Arjen
