Re: mksetupini does not return error code

Hi,

I found that in case packages validation fails the mksetup script just
returns success, though it prints a line in the console saying
"mksetupini: package set has errors, not writing setup.ini".

I think it should return some error code so that it would not be
considered as success by CI scripts where mksetupini is called from.

The problematic lines are as following:

https://cygwin.com/git/?p=cygwin-apps/calm.git;a=blob;f=calm/mksetupini.py;h=f24e4c5751e1f7e13516e8689c041403ba1f8d38;hb=HEAD#l63
returns nothing, should return non-zero error code.

https://cygwin.com/git/?p=cygwin-apps/calm.git;a=blob;f=calm/mksetupini.py;h=f24e4c5751e1f7e13516e8689c041403ba1f8d38;hb=HEAD#l118
returns nothing, should return result of do_main().

I'm not familiar with python, so I don't submit a patch, but even
without knowing python it is clearly seen that the errors are not
returned properly.

Yeah, this is a bit of an oversight.  Thanks for pointing it out.
