Comment:

    maybe it's time to remove those links.

Agreed, but I simply don't have the time to go chasing them down. The site is a
WiKi, so anyone who has asked for, and been granted, appropriate access rights
could do it, to help out.

Ticket details:

The mailing lists page http://www.mingw.org/lists.shtml refers to http://
gmane.org . Sadly, gmane is dead for a few years already (see https://
news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12180547 ). So, maybe it's time to remove those
links.

Also, maybe it would be nice to provide some info about how to search through
those mailing lists. Cause the only archive I see ( https://osdn.net/projects/
mingw/lists/archive/users/ ) does not offer any convenient search
functionality, as far as I see.

Reply To melchiorgaspar

    Its not showing me anything newer then v4.8.2-x: mingw32-gcc-dev 4.8.2-2
    installed and repo; same for g++-dev

Are you referring just to the "dev" component, here? If that's the case, then
it is correct — there is no "dev" component for any GCC release after 4.8.2.
Even for GCC-4.8.2, each of those "dev" components is nothing more than an
empty meta-package — they serve no purpose, other than to clear out any
residual garbage, which may have been inherited from a prior GCC-4.8.1 release,
and which may interfere with an upgrade to a future release, (including
GCC-4.8.2). IIRC, if you had bothered to read the package description, it tells
you this; it also states that you may safely remove this useless meta-package,
after it is installed as an upgrade dependency — you should heed this advice.

Indeed. I tried a site specific Google search, but it doesn't seem to be able
to access mail-list archives; may be worth asking OSDN.net's own tech support.
