It wouldn't hurt to just ask the question again here instead of sending
people off to read it elsewhere. If you want to track the problem down
yourself, read /usr/share/doc/cygport/manual.html -- then running cygport
with the --debug switch gives you plenty of output to tell you what's going
on when you run the failing commands. That said, you might look at a
cygport file that uses insinto/doins and adapt it (from gnuplot):
mkdir -p ${D}/etc/X11/app-defaults
insinto /etc/X11/app-defaults/Gnuplot
doins ${D}/usr/share/gnuplot/${myPV_MAJ_MIN}/app-defaults/Gnuplot
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Achim.
