Jari,
I've reviewed cabextract; following are some observations:
1) The source package has the build script named `cygbuild.sh', but as source
packages are extracted by setup to /usr/src , this might get overwritten.
Please rename the script to something like `package-ver-rel.sh'.
Also, when I envoked the script as `./cygbuild.sh all' but got the
following
[elfyn@ellixia tmp]$ ./cygbuild.sh all
-- cygbuild.sh 1.134 http://tierra.dyndns.org:81/cygwin/cygbuild/
-- Wait, reading and preparing variables based on current directory
./cygbuild.sh.DefineGlobalsRoot: [ERROR] Cannot determine VERSION from /home/elfyn/tmp.
./cygbuild.sh.DefineGlobalsRoot: [ERROR] Are you inside directory package-NN.NN/ ?
./cygbuild.sh.SrcDirCheck: [FATAL] dir is empty
Can you fix that?
OK, it was merely one point. :-) Apart from that it works well and builds OOTB
(by hand). So, once the above is fixed it's ready to be uploaded.
Elfyn
