It's nice that it compiles, and it may work for some people, but there are various problems https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3Amsys which I closed as WONTFIX. I don't want to mislead people that we support that setup.
As NEWS.org says:
- Windows/MSYS support is deprecated; it doesn't work well (if at all) and
there's currently not sufficient developer interest/expertise to change
this.
I have been using it for many years without too many problems.
Some seemingly strange problems may just be that the users themselves do not understand MSYS2.
I'll take a moment to look at the problems people have with MSYS2.
Hi,@djcb. I think "deprecated" can be changed to "experimental" and added a reminder: "We assume that the user has enough experience with MSYS2".
MSYS2 is the Emacs installation method officially recommended by gnu, See:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html#windows
