Thank you, Achim. Now, I've prepared cygport files for xapian-core and xapian-bindings: https://github.com/cygwin-lem/xapian-core-cygport/tree/n_1.4.18-1 https://github.com/cygwin-lem/xapian-bindings-cygport/tree/n_1.4.18-1 And their test packages (added python 3.8 modules, dropped python 2.7 modules): https://cygwin-lem.github.io/xapian-core-cygport/ https://cygwin-lem.github.io/xapian-bindings-cygport/ Regards, Lem
