Are you saying that "cygwin ports" are not ports of software to run on cygin?

Yes and it is as I stated. Now answer why the cygwin ports located
gpgme is label as version 1.2.0 when no such official version exists?

Yes you can verify that the latest release is 1.0.3  NOT  1.2.xx

You're unclear here.  Do you mean that setup.exe is not inherently
related to cygwin?
Or that adding a URL to setup.exe is not.  Though it seems it should
be, if software is otherwise not available, (yet listed as a cygwin
port).
