The only requirement is that
the packages should be buildable with things that are already in the
Cygwin distribution.  Since, AFAIK, scons isn't yet, you might want to ITP
scons before you ITP lyx.


This is not a problem since scons is python-based so no additional
build process is necessary. Lyx will be bundled with scons-base so one
can build lyx with 'scons' command at the top of the source tree.
