I'm unclear about whether the 'requires' field in the setup.ini file is
currently in use. Nevertheless, there are currently two inconsistencies.
Package 'gcc' requires non-existent package 'mingw'
Package 'keychain' requires non-existent package 'ssh'
These should presumably be 'mingw-runtime' and 'openssh' respectively.
I discovered this while testing a small (166 line) python library I have
written for parsing the setup.ini file. It's main use is to work out
dependencies of packages, but (as part of its self-test) it also checks for
inconsistencies in the 'requires' field.
I'd be happy to send a copy of it to either the list or individuals, if
anyone is interested.
Please CC me in any replys, as I'm not subscribed to the list.
Rasjid.
