Somehow, the published and CVS versions of mingw32-runtime.xml have diverged:
1) The CVS version has tabs converted to spaces.
2) The published version has an additional alias to mingw-runtime.
This patch adds the mingw-runtime alias back to the CVS version. This alias is referenced in the gcc manifests.

Merge the published version of mingw32-runtime.xml back to CVS
I've applied the patch locally and updated it for w32api-3.15-1. I see that there is no source packages specified in the xml file. Is this expected?
No, it really should specify the source tarball (and the tarball which includes the licence information; in this case that's the -dev package).
Partly because the older packages don't follow the new naming convention, and partly because that's just what Keith and I decided to do, I'd remove all packages that were not current when mingw-get-0.1-alpha-3 was released: e.g. all but 3.17 and 3.18.
That way, you can use global wildcarded <source > and <licence > tags rather than per-release ones:
<source tarname="mingwrt-%-mingw32-src.tar.gz" />
<licence tarname="mingwrt-%-mingw32-dev.tar.gz" />

Is this still needed?
Is this still needed? I don't think so. Closing as "out-of-date".
