Message-ID: <88171af4-4425-1923-2641-94dfbbd769e5@SystematicSw.ab.ca> (raw)
Hi folks,
Eric Blake no longer seems to have free time available for Cygwin
package upgrades, so I would like to offer to co-maintain coreutils and
provide upgrades as they are now five years old.
I would like to provide an upgrade to the final version 8 release 8.32,
initially as a TEST release, before working on the latest release 9.1.
Package sources and archives are available online at:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1z_giKv3QIUbYvSNOiTtMMr644v-wOG_k
and builds in playground from:
https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/playground.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/playground
https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/jobs.cgi?srcpkg=playground&status=&user=Brian+Inglis&id=4119
https://github.com/cygwin/scallywag/actions/runs/2239985902
The jobs appear to fail because some checks fail and return non-zero
status. Comparing checks between ciurrent and proposed releases and
across x86/_64/CI jobs, there appear to be fewer failures despite more
tests.
All feedback is encouraged and gratefully received.

Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
