The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* bmake-20240314-1
* bmake-extras-20240314-1
* bmake-extras-python-20240314-1

bmake is a portable version of the NetBSD make(1) utility. It is similar
to GNU make, even though the syntax for the advanced features supported
in Makefiles is very different.

The bmake-extras package contains many additional *.mk files and some
support scripts which are only required if used in Makefiles.

The bmake-extras-python package contains a faster alternative to the
'meta2deps.sh' script.

This is an update to the latest upstream release.

Changes since bmake-20240301-1:

- The variables .MAKE.OS and HOST_OS are now set to "Cygwin" instead of 
"CYGWIN_NT-X.Y-BUILD".

- Added sys/Cygwin.mk file.

- The error message "sed: can't read /etc/group" does no longer occur.

- The above changes are included in the upstream source release.

- The doc files for the *.mk files are now included in /usr/share/doc/bmake.

- The bmake-extras package does no longer require python because the 
'meta2deps.py' script has been moved to the new package bmake-extras-python.

The source package supports reproducible builds.

Regards,
Christian Franke
