Ludo? It was used for 5.3 (commit e3d0fcbf7e55e8cbe8d0a1c5a24d73f341d7243b, which the commit above reinstated; see ) but useless in 5.4. So yes, can be removed! Except for this one: > gnu/packages/patches/readline-7.0-mingw.patch: Introduced in > ae12d586275cdd96db23fb01bf840b2055b5b979, but never used. Jan, can you > take a look? =E2=80=A6 it looks like you can go ahead and remove=E2=80=99em all! Maybe we should add a makefile target to check for stale patches? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
