Yeah, I already read that; it says:
On the next screen you will select the packages that will be
downloaded and installed. A listing of the Cygwin/X packages is
given below; a listing of the general Cygwin packages would be
beyond the scope of this document.
In the listing of Cygwin/X packages the guide says which X11 packages
are required, but it says nothing about the "general Cygwin packages"
that are needed for a minimal X server (they are "beyond the scope of
this document"). That's what my original query is trying to get at.
(Sorry for the confusion.)
