[jifty-devel] State of cygwin install

[yary]

Hello,

I have jifty running on my openbsd box, installed with out trouble.

Trying to install on cygwin, some required dependencies don't install
from the CPAN shell:

PerlIO::gzip - latest version 0.18 fails on Cygwin (& NetBSD)
http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/PerlIO-gzip.html

Email::MIME::Creator also fails
http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/Email-MIME-Creator.html

(optional module Class::Accessor::Named, hangs while building. Not an
issue for me.)

I don't want to add ActiveState perl to this laptop, so won't be
fiddling with jifty on it. I can still develop by logging into my
OpenBSD box, just thought you'd like to know about the dependency
issues on cygwin.
