The ci files are dependency files for compiling all of Gambas.
Compilation not packaging.

Changes to Gambas code commited to gitlab trigger a test compilation on all
the listed distros in the yml file.

So it is always up to date.

Benoit made a function that reads the yml file and uses its contents to
show dependencies on the wiki install page.
I did the same with PHP on a web page.

The individual wiki distro install pages are hand written and mostly last
updated by me some time ago.
