Excerpt from:

https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/python3-pip.html

depends: python39-pip
obsoleted_by: python36-pip

This makes no sense -- it selects the full python36 installation at every
update attempt, when I want to keep the latest python installation only.

Am I missing something obvious, or is this a bug? (Obsolete package?)

I don't know how to submit a patch for this, as I can't figure out where
this dependency/obsoletion is managed. (I looked at git://
cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/python-pip but it doesn't seem related,
there is no mention of python39 at all)

It seems a package bug.
