Hi Arjen:

How do you expand the PATH?  If you mean put /usr/bin on it,
doesn't that already happen automatically when you set
the appropriate shell for MinGW-w64/MSYS2?

The reason I mention /usr/bin is that is where make.exe, bash.exe,
sh.exe, git.exe and other Unix tool executables should be located.  If
those Unix tools are not all there, then there is likely something
wrong/incomplete with your automated install procedure compared to
your previous hand-installed MinGW-w64/MSYS2 snapshot where you had no
trouble accessing all of those Unix tools (other than git.exe which
was not installed for that snapshot) in /usr/bin.

In fact, in general, can't you debug your automated install snapshot
by comparing directory listings with your prevous snapshot you created
by hand?

Also, look carefully at the file
../comprehensive_test_disposeable/comprehensive_test_env.out generated
by the comprehensive test script.  For example, if there was something
wrong with the PATH in your invocation script, it will be recorded
there.

I hope these ideas and the ideas in my previous post are a significant
help to you but if not, a few days break might clear your mind
sufficiently so you quickly spot what is wrong with your automatic
install once you look at it again.

Best wishes,

Alan
