I've added an exception for this package, and set the upload to be retried.

Thanks Jon

I will leave debug enabled in the mingw packages as they are devel, so please ignore those release 2, I will leave them at release 1.

The issue is that previous releases were always generated with debuginfo,
but the latest release also changes debug behaviour to strictly check SSL protocol, causing execution issues with users and downstreams. >>
I would like to generate the updated release without the behaviour change

If I need to generate release -2 without debuginfo, how do I avoid this

Alternatively, you could have added lines to the .cygport to explicitly
create an empty curl-debuginfo package (or make it obsolete, but that seems contraindicated if the package is coming back in future versions).
Achim seems to think in another reply that I would be better just leaving the package as it was, as that will be future upstream behaviour, which was why I was asking the questions.

So I could:

* leave the new release as is, with previous behaviour but without debuginfo, which may make it difficult for library developers; * create a newer release the same as release 1 with the new behaviour and debuginfo; * create a newer release to patch out the new behaviour which will become default in future, just for this release, and otherwise generate a debug release similar to release 1;
* roll back release 2?

Alternate opinions from or agreement with Achim's?
