lighttpd 1.4.64 removes long-deprecated packages,

I am trying to build using lighttpd.cygport and after uploading package
1.4.64-1, I got errors, so I tried adding
PKG_OBSOLETES="lighttpd-mod_trigger_b4_dl"
to lighttpd.cygport and building lighttpd.cyport package 1.4.64-2
Am I using PKG_OBSOLETES incorrectly?
Yes. The cygport manual says that PKG_OBSOLETES is "A single-line
string containing a list of package(s) which this package replaces....
Note that the PKG_OBSOLETES name is descriptive rather than literal,
where "PKG" should be substituted with the name of the binary package
whose contents it describes."
Reading this again...
To be clear, PKG needs to be replaced by the name of a package. So, you
probably want something like:
lighttpd_OBSOLETES="lighttpd-mod_trigger_b4_dl"
I think this might be a bug in calm (which processes the package uploads).
How OBSOLETES is put into effect has changed slightly in the latest
version of cygport, and calm hasn't caught up with it yet.
Thanks for reporting this.
... but there might still be an issue I need to think about here.
