I have several changes for the Unison packages in Cygwin: * All of the unison* packages now use a cygport build method. This is the first time I've used cygport with unison*, so someone may want to review that part. It works fine for me.
* New package: unison2.27. This is a new package for Cygwin, because it's an incompatible version with the other unison* packages. But it's still Unison, with the same package layout as all of the other unison* packages. So I don't think any package review is needed, except possibly for the cygport build script as described above. * Updated packages: unison2.13, unison2.17. These have updated README.Cygwin files and now use a cygport build method. * Obsoleted packages: unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, unison2.10.2, unison2.12.0. - I looked in Debian, Fedora, openSuSE, and OpenBSD, and none of them are still using these versions-- all have moved on to 2.13 or later. - Upstream source is no longer available for all of them except 2.9.1, and that version was pretty buggy. - I asked three days ago on the cygwin list if anyone still needed these packages and why, and I didn't hear anything to make me think they're still needed. Question: what should I do about these obsolete packages? I could release new setup.hints for them with category: _obsolete, but would that force users to uninstall them the next time they updated? I don't want to maintain those packages any more, but I don't want to force users to uninstall them either.
