to-be-SRC680_m212: new build requirement Filesys/CygwinPaths.pm?

My build of to-be-SRC680_m212 fails with: /usr/bin/perl -w /cygdrive/f/home/pavel/BuildDir/ooo_SRC680_m212_src/solenv/bin/ make_installer.pl -f ../util/openoffice.lst -l en-US -p OpenOffice -packagelist ../inc_openoffice/unix/ packagelist.txt -u ../wntmsci10.pro -buildid 9156 -msitemplate ../wntmsci10.pro/misc/openoffice/ msi_templates -msilanguage ../wntmsci10.pro/misc/win_ulffiles -addsystemintegration Can't locate Filesys/CygwinPaths.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /cygdrive/f/home/pavel/BuildDir/ ooo_SRC680_m212_src/solenv/bin/modules /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/5.8 /usr/lib/ perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8/cygwin /usr/ lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 .) at /cygdrive/f/home/pavel/BuildDir/ooo_SRC680_m212_src/solenv/bin/ modules/installer/windows/file.pm line 38.

This is thanks to issue 77469. I already expressed my concerns about a package that is experimental and unchanged since 2003 but the actual code inside is trivial. So installing Filesys::CygwinPaths from CPAN should solve this. And yes, a little warning and an update of the build requirements would have been nice.
This seems to be issue 77469 although that issue doesn't mention that there ever was a patch committed.

Oops ;) Sorry for posting twice.
If it is trivial, why not integrate it in? 8)
Hmm issue 77469 is this issue - you probably pasted the wrong number... Anyway: if that package is needed, and not added to OOo-Sources, then configure should/must check for it. Then the build would fail immediately, instead of after 20 or so hours..

Oops, posting twice AND the wrong issue. Yes, I meant issue 69671.
Created attachment 45225 [details] Proposed Cygwin patch
Please use the attached patch. We will try to integrate it into src680 m213 on Monday.
Ingo: thanks, works OK here.
checked in as masterfix for m213
