Updates of MSYS2
msys2 is actualy active and frequenlty updated, so, it should be regularly updated.
We will first update the core.
Start the "msys2 shell", and inside use the following commands :
Code:
pacman -Sy
pacman --needed -S bash pacman pacman-mirrors msys2-runtime
Note : If your version of MSYS2 is recent enough (but not too much), for updating the core, you can use instead just the following command :
Close the window shell with [X], not with exit.
Note : If your version of MSYS2 is even more recent,
update-core is not working anymore. You have to do :
and follow the instructions.
Now, go in the "msys2 dir" and launch (double click on it) the
autorebase.bat file.
Once finished, restart again the "msys2 shell", and finish the update with the following command :
Close with exit, and autorebase again.
Update is now finished.
Note : Again, if you've installed both x86 and x64 versions of msys2, you have to do this for both versions.
