I've done this migration today. At some point in the future calm/mksetupini will stop supporting setup.hints in the release area. (calm will still accept and migrate uploads containing a setup.hint, as per [1]) So, for the record, if you have an up-to-date calm installed, this migration can be done with 'calm-tool hint-migrate [--releasearea=...]' [1] https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2017-11/msg00044.html
