Oliver,
I am the cygwin package maintainer, so I am currently packing > 50*2
forge packages .
I am already taking long time checking that additional revisions
are available in the repository and if the case build and package
from the several repository (HG, SVN, GIT)

I am not just tarballing the files, I am using the tarball for

 pkg build -nodeps -noauto -global -verbose ${B} 
${S}/interval-${PV}.tar.gz

and the result for

  pkg install -nodeps -noauto -global -verbose  ${B}/interval-${OV}.tar.gz

in the proper directories, with the proper sripts for updating the 
package database in a cygwin installation.

My problem is that without "COPYING" in the proper place
the "pkg build.." fails.
Your is the first without COPYING in the root dir, I was forced to fake 
it with touch.

I have no intention to add additional steps like "make dist"
for any package; I do not have the bandwith to cope with additional 
specific package issue.

Attached the file list of the full final cygwin binary package.
I assume is completed.

Regards
Marco
