From 8aaba500713df6d0ccd806caff4f24f4c9fcce49 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tobias Geerinckx-Rice Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 22:34:07 +0100 Subject: gnu: mingw-w64: Fix home page and avoid further confusion. MinGW-w64 was forked (in rather dramatic fashion) from the original MinGW. The two projects remain distinct and MinGW-w64 seems by far the actively developed of the two. * gnu/packages/mingw.scm (mingw-w64)[home-page]: Point to the correct upstream. Use HTTPS. [description]: Expand and briefly note the relationship between the two projects.
