I have read this your message from the list :-)

Thank you! We can wait...

BTW, I have difficulties to install some MSYS2 packages on a FAT32 usb key. 
MSYS2 installs correctly unpacking from the tarball and also the trick 
'db_home: /home/John_Done` in `/etc/nsswitch.conf' works and so for emacs, tar, 
unzip etc. but when I try to install gcc-fortran, gcc, binutils I get the error 
described in https://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/tickets/79,

  Can't create /usr/bin/x86_64-pc-msys-gfortran.exe

etc. Also this fails:

$ tar -xvof /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-fortran-6.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz -C foo/
.PKGINFO
[...]
usr/bin/gfortran.exe
usr/bin/x86_64-pc-msys-gfortran.exe
tar: usr/bin/x86_64-pc-msys-gfortran.exe: impossibile creare un collegamento 
fisico a "usr/bin/gfortran.exe": Operation not permitted
tar: Uscita con stato di fallimento in base agli errori precedenti


Notice that

$ tar -tvf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-fortran-6.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
[...]
-rwxr-xr-x [...] usr/bin/f95.exe
-rwxr-xr-x [...] usr/bin/gfortran.exe
hrwxr-xr-x [...] usr/bin/x86_64-pc-msys-gfortran.exe collegamento a 
usr/bin/gfortran.exe

reveals 'x86_64-pc-msys-gfortran.exe' is a link (h: hard?) to 
'usr/bin/gfortran.exe'

Ciao,
Angelo.
