I installed the above packages (oh, forgot about wxwidgets), but some of them were not fully acknowledged by CMake (see the attached tarball) .

>From the report by CMake:

-        Itcl is not accepted, because CMake could not find the accompanying library - that is available though

-        Ocaml is not accepted, because CMake can not find camlidl, well that is simply not in the installation. I installed all things that contained "caml" in their name/description, but it is missing from Cygwin nonetheless

-        Qhull is not accepted either, same issue as for Itcl

-        Pyqt4 is not accepted because CMake does not find sip - again it all seems to be there

-        Tk is turned off because there was no X Window server, but that has different issues

Anyway, some progress has been made, but there remain a few things to sort out. Indeed, humbling :).

Regards,

Arjen
