I notice that David Stacey and Chris Sutcliffe have .tar.* files in
their directories but no accompanying !ready files in the directories or
in the directories above them. Without those the packages won't be
moved. If you create a !ready in an x86_64 directory it won't apply to
packages in x86 directories. This only applies to packages in the same
directory or below.
Btw, I created the !ready files...
Please forgive me, but I'm slightly confused here. I used the 'mirror'
command to upload my new package, as per your example. Then I created a
!ready file at the top level:
cd x86/release
mirror -eR icoutils
...
[Similar for x86_64]
...
cd /
put /dev/null -o !ready
I noticed that the new files were copied into ftp.cygwin.com and then I
sent out the announcement.
Was any part of this wrong?
Thanks in advance for the clarification,
Dave.
