Builds fine from source.

The minimal requires line should be:

  requires: cygwin glib2 libncurses8 openssl perl

There are other packaging bugs:

a.)  /etc/irssi.conf should go to /etc/defaults/etc/irssi.conf and copied to
     /etc via a postinstall script.

b.)  /usr/lib/irssi/modules is empty

c.)  The contents of /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/perllocal.pod should be
     appended to the system /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/perllocal.pod

d.)  The various .packlist files below /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto contain
     the DESTDIR directory prepended to the filenames

I would recommend switching to the cygport build framework. cygport
usually takes care of a.), c.) and maybe d.)
