Which is based on apt-cyg AFAIK. And I missed the the ``apt-get upgrade`` functionality in both pact/apt-cyg.

Indeed. It's kind of weird there's no package manager beyond setup.exe in Cygwin. There's even a port of rpm in the package collection. I wonder if Cygwin misses some bigger piece of functionality that is a requirement for rpm. Or maybe it's just good enough for most of use cases.
