Hi,

ok I agree it might be cleaner to use Windows-style paths for all
cmake parameters on MSYS2. I changed my CI and everything works! :-)

But just as a side comment: It would be super cool if cmake would
support both styles for all parameters. The typical use on MSYS2 for
many commands is with Unix paths, and its great that cmake already
supports this so nicely. It really made things easier for me!

If its not a huge effort it would be great to have the same behaviour
also for the package configs.

Cheers and thanks,

   Mario
