You might want to check the archives for an earlier discussion about perl_vendor. https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2012-08/msg00006.html TL;DR: I'm locally keeping perl_vendor as an "umbrella" package that just provides dependencies and package each Perl dstribution separately. I've progressed to have two more of these umbrella packages, specifically one that collects all the Perl distributions I only need to build other distributions with (that are not already in perl_vendor) and another that collects all the distributions for our data analysis. The dependencies among these packages never reference the umbrella packages, so they are strictly for convenience of installing a bunch of Perl distributions via a single package. The cygport files for each Perl distribution are auto-generated (while using some changes to cygport that Yaakov hasn't accepted upstream).
