It is really required if you want to install TeX Live 2025.

texlive-20250416-1 provides it. But for some reason the dependency
solver doesn't think it can install that package. If you could show the
full text of the "Resolving Dependencies" box, there might be some clue.
It would also help if you could show the full list of packages you are
trying to install. Or there might be a clue in /var/log/setup.log
and/or /var/log/setup.log.full. Finally, if you attach cygcheck output
as requested in
https://cygwin.com/problems.html,
I or someone else might be able to spot the problem.
