Hello, I've recently needed to use some packages that were not available in the WinRPM repositories but were in MSys2's mingw64 repo. I naturally set out to build a package provider for MSys2, after some work figuring out
The github repository is located at https://github.com/barcharcraz/MSys2.jl and I'd love for a few people to try it before I submit a pull request for METADATA. The build file will download and extract all of msys2 to a local directory, and then update. It's a pretty large download (in the hundreds of megabytes) so try not to build the package on a slow connection. After downloading the distribution package the build script updates the repositories, installs the latest version of pacman, then upgrades all packages twice. I need to do two calls to upgrade because when msys2 updates its runtime you need to restart the shell.
