Search:
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=xorg-x11-xwin
take:
xorg-x11-xwin/xorg-x11-xwin-7.4-1 Obsolete package
>From setup.ini:
@ xorg-x11-xwin
sdesc: "Obsolete package"
ldesc: "Obsolete package"
category: _obsolete
That mean 'obsolete' for package?
I search for docs in:
Cygwin Package Contributor's Guide
Cygwin User's Guide
http://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/setup-head.ini.html
but does not found any relevant docs for 'obsolete' keyword.
Do this mean that package depricated and I need avoid its uses?
Or it is for a long time does not updated and can have known bugs?
I will be glad if docs updated with appropriate texts.
