Thank you so much for your help!
Removing the Msys2 versions of inkscape and then installing the windows
package and adjusting my path to
export PATH=$PATH:"/c/Program Files/Inkscape"
and then commenting out line 33 in zutil.h, recompiling and replacing
pngcrush seemed to work.
I am providing details in case others have this challenge.
I am now waiting for the compile to run but it seems happy.
Thanks again!
Brian

Thanks for this.
Unfortunately, inkscape and pngcrush seem to be a work in process on Msys.
If I install the package
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-inkscape
and run inkscape I get the error
$ inkscape
C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/inkscape.exe: error while loading shared
libraries: libpoppler-89.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
If I build inkscape in MSYS and run make install I get
[ 0%] Built target potrace
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/bjpic/debug'
[ 0%] Creating 48 pixel tall
C:/msys64/home/bjpic/debug/bitmaps_png/tmp/wizard_add_fplib_icon.png

[ 0%] Creating 16 pixel tall

Unknown option --without-gui
[ 0%] Creating cleaned file
C:/msys64/home/bjpic/kicad/bitmaps_png/png_16/folder.png
running inkscape --without-gui causes the same error.
Similarly, installing the pngcrush package in msys2 pacman -S
mingw-w64-x86_64-pngcrush results in the warning
$ pngcrush
Warning: versions are different between png.h and png.c
png.h version: 1.6.34
png.c version: 1.6.37
Making pngcrush under msys2 fails with a forced error.
In general it seems that many related utilities under Msys2 are a dogs
breakfasts.
Perhaps for the moment it would be best if I simply made my bitmaps
manually.

I have no issues with inkscape and pngcrush.
However:
- Inkscape is installed from binaries coming from Inkscape site.
- pngcrush was built on msys2 by me from pngcrush sources.
This is a very small program and it is easy to build on msys2.
However, to build it, remove (or comment) the line 33 in zutil.h
"typedef long ptrdiff_t; /* guess -- will be caught if guess is wrong */"
to avoid a conflict with a mingw included file.
the first useful line of my script running cmake is:
export PATH=$WXMSW:$PATH:/d/inkscape:/d/pngcrush
You will have to remove inkscape from msys2.
Attached, my msys2 script to run cmake.
Good luck...

Hello
I emailed earlier because when I follow the directions to create a new
icon under MSYS2 it fails.
This means that either
1) the directions are wrong or
2) I am following them incorrectly.
Perhaps an icon maintainer can get in contact with me and work through
this?
I basically need to clone the icons annotate_right_down and
annotate_down_right rotated 90, 180, and 270 degrees. Not complicated.
thanks

Hi Brian,
To build the .cpp files the option MAINTAIN_PNGS must be set to ON in
makefiles.
So:
1 - To avoid cache issues, delete your current CMakeCache.txt file in
your build directory.
2 - Run cmake as before, with option -DMAINTAIN_PNGS=ON to recreated the
makefiles
After that you should be able to rebuild/create the .cpp bitmap files.
