    - Fix bug 38430 using upstream commit
    Feb. 14, 2019 Dmitry V. Levin 4.2.1.0.170.dc189d-alt1
    - Updated to gawk-4.2.1-170-gdc189dc6.
    - Ceased packaging of obsolete igawk script.
    - Suspended build and packaging of gawk.pdf and awkcard.pdf files
      because their build requirements include texlive-dist
      which is insanely huge and pulls in hordes of irrelevant packages.

    - Rebuilt with libreadline.so.6.
