This is a packaging problem. Fixed:

  wget        \
    http://cygwin.cante.net/aewm++-goodies/aewm++-goodies-1.0-1-src.tar.bz2 \
    http://cygwin.cante.net/aewm++-goodies/aewm++-goodies-1.0-1.tar.bz2 \
    http://cygwin.cante.net/aewm++-goodies/setup.hint


I find the listing useful for this:

    grep <file name> /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/*

> Shouldn't this package depend on aewm++ ?

Good question. Not strictly. The utilities (fspanel, appbar,
setrootimage) can be used with any lightweight WM. It just happens that
they were originally created for aewm++ and were part of its package.
The only file that depends on aewm++ is aewm++_xsession.

Debian lists:

    Enhances: aewm++ 

But contains no 'Requires: aewm++'
