AFAIK cmake does not depend on the GCC toolchain, so you need to install it explicitly: pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc > Frankly, I am confused with the the two consoles msys2 and mingw64.

The mingw64 "console" is just the same as the msys2 console but with the mingw64 `bin' directory at the front of the PATH, so the mingw64 binaries are found first. It also sets some enviroment variables (MSYSTEM, for instance) but that's basically it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
