Hello,
These are definitely not CygWin packages. But personally, I've
been installing some packages by merely extracting the .tar.bz2 files at
the right locations. I just download the :
http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/cygwin/release/more/more-2.11o-1.tar.bz2
and install. I mention this, because usually the linux rpms and Cygwin
packages have similar names. I just gave it as an example to Tarun's query
that some of the commands are not installed.
I use mine to download a bunch of packages at the lab,and extract
them from CD at home. The setup.exe is the usual method!
