Subject: Retiring setup.hint
Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2017 19:42:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c02c6bce-39f5-a636-475a-2a9ed066a404@dronecode.org.uk> (raw)
I propose that calm will stop accepting uploads containing setup.hint
some time shortly after 2017-11-18.
This is approximately one year after the cygport release [1] which,
stopped generating these files, so if you're using cygport >= 0.23.0, no
action is needed.
Warnings that you need to upgrade cygport have been generated for more
than 6 months [2].
After setup.hint uploads are disabled, any remaining setup.hint in the
cygwin release on sourceware.org will be migrated to pvr.hint(s), as per
[3].
