[ACTION REQUIRED] ARCH=noarch uploads with cygport 0.22.0

[Yaakov Selkowitz]

Package Maintainers,

cygport 0.22.0 is on its way to the mirrors.  With this release, and 
thanks to Jon Turney's continuing work on calm (the replacement for 
upset which generates setup.ini), packages marked ARCH=noarch will be 
uploaded once under the /noarch/release hierarchy instead of into each 
of /x86/release and /x86_64/release.  This change is intended to save 
disk space and bandwidth for both sourceware and our mirrors.

A package should be marked ARCH=noarch IF AND ONLY IF *all* subpackages 
thereof do not contain anything compiled with the *native* gcc, and the 
file contents are (or can be) 100% identical for x86 and x86_64. 
Examples include, but are not limited to, packages which contain only:

* documentation;
* scripts;
* fonts;
* icon themes;
* other runtime data;
* C/C++ headers without a library;
* libraries for cross-compiler toolchains.
* pure Lua/Perl/Python/Ruby/Tcl modules without C/C++ bindings.

Once you have upgraded to cygport 0.22.0, maintainers MUST email a list 
of their package(s) which qualify as noarch AND are already marked 
ARCH=noarch or will be with the next release.  (Note that inheriting 
cross.cygclass implies ARCH=noarch.)  A new release is NOT necessary 
just to add ARCH=noarch to the .cygport, just that it should be added 
locally so as to be included in the next release.  We will then move 
these packages into /noarch/release on sourceware and acknowledge such, 
at which point you are clear to upload future releases.

Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.

TIA,
-- 
Yaakov
