Thanks to figure out the difference between mingw-w64 and msys2
Following your tutorials, I got these:
checking for tgetent in -ltinfo... (cached) no
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... (cached) yes
ncurses library is not usable
checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
no terminal library found
checking for tgetent()... configure: error: NOT FOUND!
You need to install a terminal library; for example ncurses.
Or specify the name of the library with --with-tlib.

I have install both ncurses-devel and ncurses.
What's wrong with that ?
