The port broke in the beginning of February when upstream uploaded a new pluginloader tarball to MASTER_SITES. Since the tarball is unversioned and only contains prebuilt Windows binaries, here's an attempt at explaining what happened (thanks to Grzegorz Junka for the investigation): - Pipelight seems to be really bad at communication. The "News" section on the website says 0.2.8 is the latest version. - The "Compile Pipelight" section says 0.2.8.1 is the latest version. - 0.2.8.2 was tagged in BitBucket in October 2015 but was never announced anywhere on the website, and the project does not seem to have a mailing list. - The pluginloader tarballs, which contain prebuilt Windows binaries for Pipelight's src/windows directory, were not updated at the time 0.2.8.2 was tagged (the SHA256 checksums match those in the 0.2.8.1 directory in MASTER_SITES). This only happened in February 2016, which broke our distinfo. Note that it is unclear why the pluginloader tarballs were not generated in October, and since those are binary blobs it is still possible that they do not correspond to their respective source files. In the future, it would be good to build those binaries with our MinGW ports instead of relying on those blobs.
