Notes Download
cygextras 0.3.4 cygextras is a dll containing various functions required by Gnome modules but missing from cygwin1.dll. Made by Steven O'Brien.

Since gnome-vfs and ORBit is staticly linked against it, you need this only if you want to build gnome-vfs or ORBit by your own.

libungif
4.1.0-b1
Note: you can use Cygwin official release of libungif-4.1.0, but you need to copy /bin/cygungif-4.dll to /opt/gnome/bin/cygungif.dll.
