The packaging script httping-1.4.4-1.sh does not support wildcards in
the install.lst file:
$ cat httping-1.4.4/CYGWIN-PATCHES/install.lst
*.1 usr/share/man/man1/
httping usr/bin/
This results in:
$ ./httping-1.4.4-1.sh --test install
...
--- Installing with external: CYGWIN-PATCHES/install.lst
...
install -m 755 \
/usr/src/httping-1.4.4/.build/build/httping.1 \
/usr/src/httping-1.4.4/.inst/usr/share/man/man1/*.1
Fix: The first line of install.lst can be removed. It is not needed as
the man page is later overwritten with an alternate one from CYGWIN-PATCHES.
