I mentioned this a while ago but the 'units' package also has a
dependency on 'python39' and 'python39-requests'. This is purely
because of the currency updater script (/usr/bin/unit_cur) I believe.
Splitting the updater script out and have it depend upon units, python3
& requests sounds like a sensible approach although I don't know how
much extra fiddling that would require when releasing upstream changes
next time around. (Sorry, I've not found the time to grok cygport yet.
So many tools, so little time! ;-))
splitting is a minor operation in this case as
there is only one file that is pulling python
$ file /usr/bin/units_cur
/usr/bin/units_cur: Python script, Unicode text, UTF-8 text executable
so if this file is moved to a new binary package (e.g units-tool)
that package will require units and python, while the remaining package
will require the usual stuff
$ cyg-dependency.sh /usr/bin/units.exe
/usr/bin/cygwin1.dll => cygwin-3.5.7-1
/usr/bin/cygreadline7.dll => libreadline7-8.2-2
KERNEL32.dll => Windows System
