The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* cygport-0.36.0-1
cygport is the standard method for building and maintaining
packages for the Cygwin distribution.
Highlights of this release:
* Error on attempts to build python2 packages with the
python2{,-disutils,-wheel} cygclasses, or with the python-wheel cygclass
with a PYTHON_WHEEL_VERSIONS containing "2".
* Warn about the upstream deprecation of python distutils (removal is
planned for Python 3.12).
* Document the implicit actions taken on files in $C. For those rare
packages which use those actions, add CYGWIN_FILES to place files in $C,
as an alternative to creating them with a ${PF}.cygwin.patch file.
* Document that it's valid to set PN_debuginfo_OBSOLETES, even though
PN_debuginfo is not explicitly listed in PKG_NAMES.
