Thanks, this is what I looked for.

However, I notice that:

1) If the .lst.gz file is missing, "cygcheck -c <package>" still reports OK.

2) When testing a missing package, "cygcheck -c <package>" does not 
output any status line, but its return code is still 0. This is not easy 
to use from scripts.
