The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* cygport-0.36.0-1

cygport is the standard method for building and maintaining
packages for the Cygwin distribution.

Highlights of this release:

* Error on attempts to build python2 packages with the 
python2{,-disutils,-wheel} cygclasses, or with the python-wheel cygclass 
with a PYTHON_WHEEL_VERSIONS containing "2".

* Warn about the upstream deprecation of python distutils (removal is 
planned for Python 3.12).

* Document the implicit actions taken on files in $C.  For those rare 
packages which use those actions, add CYGWIN_FILES to place files in $C, 
as an alternative to creating them with a ${PF}.cygwin.patch file.

* Document that it's valid to set PN_debuginfo_OBSOLETES, even though 
PN_debuginfo is not explicitly listed in PKG_NAMES.
