Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2019-10-10 14:07:38 UTC
The packages listed in summary still use EAPI 0.  Please bump them to a newer EAPI (7 if possible).
Comment 1 Michael Haubenwallner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2019-10-24 08:33:45 UTC
Note: dev-libs/cygwin is not used in Prefix _on_ Cygwin.

It probably is needed to cross compile _for_ Cygwin, but 1.5 feels outdated.

One could imagine a Gentoo/Cygwin distro like Gentoo/FreeBSD, but for the time being, the cygwin dll does not support to update itself while running, or should be treated like a sys-kernel package that require a reboot to update.
