> Has this been taken care of? I'm seeing 4.32.7-2 as the current version of lzma when I run setup-1.7.exe rather than 4.32.7-3.

Interesting.  I just looked at the setup.hint on sourceware (release-2
area):

category: _obsolete
requires: xz
sdesc: "removed package"
ldesc: "Compatibility package to force installation of replacement"
curr: 4.32.7-3
prev: 4.32.7-2

Which seems right, Then, in setup-2.ini:

@ lzma
sdesc: "Removed package"
ldesc: "Compatibility package to force installation of replacement"
category: _obsolete
requires: xz cygwin
[prev]
version: 4.32.7-2
install: release-2/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-2.tar.bz2 162142
ffe2c623c69e07251ad8ed5560425fee
source: release-2/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-2-src.tar.bz2 486990
2945e37b4f6b76f3fc3895f90d2c4737

So, I'm not sure if there's a bug in upset (the setup*.ini generator),
or if it's working as it is supposed to (logically, if a package is
_obsolete, then there is no "current" version).

If the latter, then I need to figure out how to get "the right thing"
into setup*.ini.

However, an argument for the former (e.g. a bug in upset): the setup.ini
for cygwin-1.5 has:

@ lzma
sdesc: "Removed package"
ldesc: "Compatibility package to force installation of replacement"
category: _obsolete
requires: xz
version: 4.32.7-3
install: release/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-3.tar.bz2 14
4059d198768f9f8dc9372dc1c54bc3c3
source: release/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-3-src.tar.bz2 14
4059d198768f9f8dc9372dc1c54bc3c3
[prev]
version: 4.32.7-2
install: release/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-2.tar.bz2 162142
ffe2c623c69e07251ad8ed5560425fee
source: release/lzma/lzma-4.32.7-2-src.tar.bz2 486990
2945e37b4f6b76f3fc3895f90d2c4737

And the two lzma/setup.hints are identical.

Chris, any suggestions?
