Oh yeah, and:

Was there something specific you saw indicating that cygipc was still being used? If it is the setup.hint, then the setup.hint is just out of date.

I went on a pretty thorough campaign to get rid of packages that were dependent upon cygipc sometime over a year ago, since it seemed to be mostly my packages that were dependent on cygipc. I don't recall giving up before fixing ddd :)

Since cygserver exists for quite some time now, I'm wondering why the ddd
package still references cygipc.

I'd like to ask the ddd maintainer to come up with a new package which just
uses the cygserver IPC stuff instead of using cygipc.

The next step would be to either move the cygipc package into the _obsolete
(aka ZZZRemovedPackages) group, or remove it entirely.  In case of cygipc I
think that removing the package is the way to go.


Thanks,
Corinna
