I don't think so, at least when I look at the PKGBUILD it is still using bootstrap.sh and b2 to build. See: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/fd550b8d48e6bc831b1e36202eaf495cba5062f8/mingw-w64-boost/PKGBUILD
I don't see anything immediately alarming. Maybe the builds scripts in boost changed such that they need patching to work properly with msys2? Also it seems that other people are struggling: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/issues/5233 Nick On Wed, 1 May 2019 at 15:41, Wayne Stambaugh <stambau...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 5/1/2019 8:53 AM, John Beard wrote: > > On 01/05/2019 13:36, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > >> On 5/1/2019 8:27 AM, John Beard wrote: > >>> On 01/05/2019 12:53, Jeff Young wrote: > >>>> Someone on the forums had to turn off the qa tests on Linux to get it > >>>> to build: > >> It fails during linking not compiling.
