Hi all, I have some questions about msys2 which maybe some of you can answer:
1. how can I bundle msys2 with another software? how do you keep track of the msys2 root directory? do you have some registry setting set by the installer? If you move the msys directory someplace else than where you originally installed it, how can you tell it that its root directory changed? 2. can you install msys2 packages via pacman in another directory? i would like to have a very small core package of msys2 with mingw32 and mingw64 compilers and big packages like qt5 and so on installed in some other directory. Something like: Core: X:/msys X:/msys/mingw32 X:/msys/mingw64 Optional: big packages like qt5, openscenegraph, etc X:/opt/mingw32 X:/opt/mingw64 The Core system I would like to bundle with other software for distribution and the additional Optional package would only be used by developers. 3. can one remove the pacman cache? can this directory: msys/var/cache/pacman/pkg be cleaned out without impacting pacman?
