This is the list of pending packages as of Tuesday, October 28, 2003.
** PACKAGE PROPOSERS ** Please verify these fields **
Package: The name and version of the package as it will appear in setup.
Proposal: Files that will be uploaded to sources.redhat.com unmodified.
HOLD-UPS: What you need to finish! What we are waiting for.
Maintainers of existing packages are eligible to vote on ITPs and new package
proposals. Once a package has been proposed, a cygwin-apps subscriber must
review it, and may point out problems or suggest changes. Each package must
receive a "good to go" (positive review) and must have all problems addressed
before being accepted.
Problems can be addressed either by announcing an updated version or explaining
why the problem is not an issue.

Waiting for review: ploticus sgrep suite3270 distcc libsmi nfs-server freetype2
Waiting for vote[s]: ploticus sgrep suite3270 libsmi freetype2 fontconfig (GAP) (ns) (otcl)
With unresolved problems: tcm ploticus sgrep d distcc fontconfig
Package: tcm 2.20-1
Description: Toolkit for Conceptual Modeling (TCM)
Proposer: Daniel Boesswetter
Proposal: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2003-01/msg00299.html
http://home.in.tum.de/~boesswet/tcm-2.20-1.tar.bz2
http://home.in.tum.de/~boesswet/tcm-2.20-1-src.tar.bz2
http://home.in.tum.de/~boesswet/setup.hint
Good to go: Charles Wilson (cygwin-apps-thread.11851) (once problems are addressed)
Problems: So, here's the question for the list. For the cygwin-specific README in a X-related package, where should it go? (cygwin-apps-thread.11851)
Status: Attained required 3 votes. Package available. Reviewed.
HOLD-UPS: Unresolved minor problems.
Package: ploticus 2.11-1
Description: Command line driven tool to generates various plots and graphs
Proposer: Jari Aalto
Proposal: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2003-09/msg00165.html
http://tierra.dyndns.org:81/cygwin/ploticus/ploticus-2.11-1.tar.bz2
http://tierra.dyndns.org:81/cygwin/ploticus/ploticus-2.11-1-src.tar.bz2
http://tierra.dyndns.org:81/cygwin/ploticus/setup.hint
Problems: Jari needs to (a) remove /usr/X11R6/lib/libz.a|libz.dll.a (b) recompile the package. This will ensure that it links against /usr/lib/libz.dll.a and picks up "cygz.dll" instead. (cygwin-apps-thread.11583)
More to the point, the build requirements list "libzlib", "libpng", and "X11". Those packages do NOT exist. What you want is: XFree86-base zlib libpng12 libpng12-devel (cygwin-apps-thread.11583)
./cygbuild-2.11-1.sh: line 402: [: -eq: unary operator expected (cygwin-apps-thread.11583)
Status: Package available.
HOLD-UPS: Not enough votes (need 3). Unresolved problems. No "good to go" review.

http://mywebpage.netscape.com/yselkowitz/cygwin/d/setup.hint
Good to go: Gerrit P. Haase (cygwin-apps-thread.11476) (once problems are addressed)
Problems: [not a showstopper] there's no need for a postinstall script here. Just add _update-info-dir to your requires: line in the setup.hint instead. (cygwin-apps-thread.11856)
Have we already talked about why this package is better than 'ls'? If it is just another directory lister with different options then I don't see a need for it. Also, if it isn't part of any other linux or unix distribution then it doesn't really fit into the core goal for cygwin. (cygwin-apps-thread.11858)

HOLD-UPS: Unresolved minor problems.

Problems: the documentation needs to be consolidated into usr/share/doc/distcc-2.11.1/ (cygwin-apps-thread.11644)
a Cygwin-specific README needs to be created (cygwin-apps-thread.11644)
