I never changed anything in this department. I'm just repackaging
mlcscope and applying the patch to change cscope: to mlcscope: in the
output. I don't understand why this is working differently for you now.

Have removed the empty dirs.

Oh stupid me. Fixed.

I created a
usr/src/mlcscope-14.1.8-1/CYGWIN-PATCHES/mlcscope-14.1.8.README file
with the build instructions and some info about what the patch does.

I am not trying to package the sourceforge version of cscope. I am
packaging the Lucent version of mlcscope. Given the state of the source
package from Lucent, I do not think that cygport is sufficent. For
example, it can't automatically change the source to output mlcscope as
the program name, and delete the cscalls and cscope man pages as you
requested.
I tried using cygport on mlcscope:
$ cat mlcscope-14.1.8.cygport
DESCRIPTION="developer's tool for browsing source code"
HOMEPAGE="http://www1.bell-labs.com/project/wwexptools/cscope/"
SRC_URI="http://www1.bell-labs.com/cgi-user/wwexptools/gensnapshot/i686-pc-cygwin/cscope.tar.gz"
Shared@TOSHIBALAPTOP /usr/src/newcscope/cygport
$ cygport mlcscope-14.1.8.cygport get almostall

This is why I creating my own packaging script for mlcscope. For me,
creating my own packaging script was easier than repackaging the source
so that cygport worked. I'm sure cygport works great for sourceforge
cscope, but that is not what I'm porting, and offering to become the
maintainer of at this time. Maybe I can take on that challenge at a
later date.
I have updated the packages on the website if you could find the time to
take another look.
Cheers
Dave
