-------------------------------------

as the situation was

Version	Arch	Package Size	Date	Files	Status
20090325-1	src	357 KiB	2013-06-05 06:11	stable
1:5.6.0-1	src	646 KiB	2021-03-14 18:00	stable
1:5.8.0-1	src	966 KiB	2025-01-08 14:14	stable

but
  ssh [email protected] vault tidy-20090325-1

was not effective, I finally went on the

RELEASEDIR => '/sourceware/ftp/anonftp/pub/cygwin/x86_64/release'

and nuked 20090325-1 and removed the "version 1:.." override.

I hope this will reset to a standard configuration

Version	Arch	Package Size	Date	Files	Status

5.6.0-1	src	646 KiB	2021-03-14 18:00	stable
5.8.0-1	src	966 KiB	2025-01-08 14:14	stable

and allows normal upgrade.

I hope it will solve the problem and your manual intervention will not 
be required. Otherwise you know what I did :-(

Regards
Marco
