The MSYS2 project keep an up to date archive with files lists for all packages
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/msys2/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/mingw64.files.tar.gz
This file is not very large considering
$ gzip -l mingw64.files.tar.gz
compressed uncompressed ratio uncompressed_name
982852 9585152 89.7% mingw64.files.tar
I was wondering if something like this is possible with Cygwin. Currently if you
want to search a file that is not installed you must use
cygcheck --package-query
which I have noticed can be very slow. I would be happy to help with maintaining
a Cygwin archive with file lists for all packages.
