Hi devs, I'm doing my first build from source, using msys2 on windows. I (shallow) cloned the main repository. I downloaded the tools and dependencies using pacman, according to here: https://dev-docs.kicad.org/en/build/windows-msys2/ Now I should be able to run cmake, but cmake fails.
User@Programming MSYS ~/kicad/build/release $ /mingw64/bin/cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -G "MSYS Makefiles" \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/mingw64 \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/mingw64 \ -DDEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH=/mingw64 \ ../../ -- The C compiler identification is unknown -- The CXX compiler identification is unknown -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - failed -- Check for working C compiler: C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe -- Check for working C compiler: C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe - broken CMake Error at C:/msys64/mingw64/share/cmake-3.20/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:66 (message): The C compiler "C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe" is not able to compile a simple test program. I looked at CMakeError.log. From what I can tell from there, it seems to be trying to compile "CMakeCCompilerId.c" with gcc but it passed the flags --target=arm-arm-none-eabi;-mcpu=cortex-m3 to gcc and gcc does not understand those flags. Those flags are very strange. I did not ask to cross-compile, and of course I would not expect for a cross-compilation to work. Have I missed a step? -Clifford
