I can work on it soon if required. I mean isnt that the whole point of Test packages? The way I see it the Test package should always be matching the major version, and ideally the minor version. For even the test version to be literally 2 majors versions back kills any reason to even have it. It would be better to just remove the test version altogether and just have current and "prev" if it cant be kept up to date. On a personal note the optics just look bad. GCC points people to Cygwin: https://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html then when the users get here, they find the mingw64-x86_64-gcc-core 7.3 which is 2 years old: https://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
