Hi John (Turney),
After I had downloaded and exercised setup version 2.882, I noticed
that setup.ini has multiple (2?) "prev" entries per package ...
Why? Did I miss one of your announcements mentioning this change?
Jon,
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2017-10/msg00047.html
Because of the way setup works, the last [test] section is the version
which
is selected when 'test' is selected, so a specific ordering of the
sections
would be required. ...
Jon,
Currently, I am only interested in the _specification_ that you have
in mind for setup.ini ...
Regards,
Henri
Another (edited) snippet from setup.ini: (where the latest test entry is
