Hi Greg,

(As a curiosity: the MinGW/MSYS specific version of CMake 3.2.3 does not know about MSYS Makefiles, whereas the Windows version does.) For mingw-w64 version you need to first find it with pacman -Ss then call it out explicitly $ pacman -Ss cmake mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-cmake 3.4.1-1 A cross-platform open-source make system (mingw-w64) mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-extra-cmake-modules 5.18.0-1 Extra CMake modules (mingw-w64) mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake 3.4.1-1 A cross-platform open-source make system (mingw-w64) mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-extra-cmake-modules 5.18.0-1 Extra CMake modules (mingw-w64) msys/cmake 3.2.3-1 [installed: 3.3.2-1] A cross-platform open-source make system So you will need to "pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake"; before you were getting the posix MSYS version. This has "MSYS Makefiles" removed precisely so it isn't confused. To get a more up-to-date cmake you can bootstrap the source easy enough and 1. copy prefix/bin into /mingw64/bin and 2. copy prefix/share/cmake-3.X to /mingw64/share (that's how I got my 3.3.2 back when it was "new"). >> AM: Two odd things here: >> 1.
