Maybe it's because of "libmbedx509" having a number at the end of its
name, incorrectly interpreted as its version number (0)?
Its package name is "libmbedx509-0".
Using a package name containing a hyphen followed by a digit isn't
actually forbidden currently, but perhaps should be. It introduces an
ambiguity about where the version starts.
This seems to tickle a bug somewhere in cygport as it doesn't generate
the requires: correctly
It would be much better if cygport just said "no" when you tried to use
a package name with a hyphen followed by a digit.
Any tips to fix it is appreciated.
Name the package 'libmbedx509_0'
See [1], which we generally follow:
"If the base package name ends with a digit, a single underscore ("_")
MUST be appended to the name, and the version MUST be appended to that,
in order to avoid confusion over where the name ends and the version
begins."
