I'm currently using 8.2 for GNAT and GCC, but I think 8.2.1 is available. I don't believe it actually is GPRBUILD. I think that GNAT and GCC for msys2 are the outlier. I have two versions of GPRBUILD available: the one from Adacore that is up to date and the one from the Gnoga SF repo. Both work find when building and installing using GNAT Community 2017 and 2018. However, both fail to work when using the msys2 version of GNAT. If it were a GPRBUILD problem, I would expect that the Gnoga SF version to also fail when using GNAT Community but it doesn't. It works just fine. Any version of GPRBUILD that I try to use with the msys2 GNAT fails to work due to the .exe extension issue. My work around has been to go into those locations and copy each of the gpr files from ****.gpr to ****.gpr.gpl and then modify each of the original ****.gpr files to use the .exe in the name and copy those to a ****.gpr.fsf. That way, I can use a script to swap between the version of the gprs that works with GNAT community and the version that works with msys2 GNAT. Though if I forget to do that before I build, it can get messy.
As far as building GPRBUILD manually on msys2. I've never gotten that to work. It never builds correctly.
