Hi Yaakov,

as you know I have been using a modified version of cygport to make more
extensive use of version-less cygport files and patches and to more
generally allow the omission of the ".cygport" suffix on the command
line.  For want of a better word I've called these changes "rpm-style".
To avoid the clutter of sending patches to the list, please have a look
at:

(Browse) http://repo.or.cz/w/cygport/rpm-style.git
(HTTP)	 http://repo.or.cz/r/cygport/rpm-style.git
(GIT)	 git://repo.or.cz/cygport/rpm-style.git

I am using this version to keep track of over 300 (mostly
auto-generated) Perl Distribution packages and it's really making my
workflow more efficient.  I know you're having a different opinion and I
concur that it probably doesn't matter for your workflow, but I hope you
might reconsider your position.


Also, there are some additional changes that keep downloaded files in a
cache directory $DISTDIR and use files from that cache without copying
them into the work tree, these patches should be more generally useful
and I would ask you to accept them upstream.  I can put them into a
separate branch if you like.


Regards,
Achim.
