Ooops. Why do these basic programs have to be provided by SO many
sources? (kill, for instance, is included with cygwin, is a bash
built-in, and can be provided by coreutils, procps, and util-linux, at
least.)
| last conflicts with last from sysvinit-2.84-4
This makes sense, but removing it from util-linux will require a
simultaneous rename of -4 to -5, otherwise /usr/bin/last will go missing
entirely.
| logger conflicts with logger from inetutils-1.3.2-37
Looking into this, Debian, Ubuntu, and LFS defer /usr/bin/logger to
util-linux. Also, inetutils-1.3 is ANCIENT, but I understand that there
are probably a lot of cygwin-specific patches involved. Any input from
the inetutils maintainer? (Corinna?)
