As I requested before at http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2008-09/msg00070.html, I routinely use Charles Wilson's patch for src_prep_fini_hook() (http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-01/msg00110.html), and would like to see it included in cygport. As I explained in the thread referenced above, src_patch_hook() and src_unpack_hook() are not adequate substitutes for src_prep_fini_hook(), because both of the former act *before* origsrc is mirrored to src. So, using them it is not possible to make changes to src independently from origsrc. src_prep_fini_hook(), as Charles proposed it, is called after origsrc is mirrored to src, so that I can patch src independent of origsrc, and the changes are captured in cygwin.patch-- which is essential for creating a working source package. If you don't like src_prep_fini_hook(), then maybe src_unpack_hook() could be moved down below the call to rsync, which would make it the same as src_prep_fini_hook(). Thanks, Andrew.
