      Hi,
      I was happily surprised to have my version of cygwin seen outdated and a new version proposed.
      I was surprised as cygwin is flagged as "untracked".

      So still untracked? Or untracked tracked?

      Regards.

          @tom "sporadic security information" was / is the reason.

          So still untracked.

          @OLLI_S : explained so can be moved to fixed.

            Something like that...

            Well, essentially there can be two reasons why we flag something as "Untracked".

            One is if we can't find a good reliable way to track the latest versions.

            The second is if we can't find a good source of security information.

            Looking at this, it seems that it is the lack of security information that caused us to mark it as untracked, but I also just reviewed the latest versions and it is also clear that the version numbers and strings in the files is a tad inconsistent.

            And on that note I just fixed the detection of the latest 3.3.4 so it should be correct now.
