Thank you very much. That package is missing ccmake though, so I can only run cmake directly and even then it strangely(?) defaults to Visual Studio when I would expect it to go for Unix Makefiles. (The "ccmake" from /usr/bin/ccmake is not helping in any way either, I was hoping it would perhaps use mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake.) I later noticed that there is /mingw64/bin/cmake-gui.exe, but that one doesn't really work either: $ cmake-gui C:/msys/msys64/mingw64/bin/cmake-gui.exe: error while loading shared libraries: librhash.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory > You've installed > package that targets MSYS environment, not native Windows. I still assume that others might run into exactly the same isuse in the future. Since it's explicitly suggesting to write to the mailing list, the reports might repeat. (OK, I don't expect so many people to use the strange unix toolchains on windows platforms, but still.)
