The NEWS file of gawk-5.1.0 says:
"5. MSYS2 is now supported out-of-the-box by configure."
After setting-up a MSYS2 + MinGW32 + MinGW64 environment, the first
attempt to build gawk-5.0.1 fails. The usual recipe:
./configure && make && ...
causes './configure' to run ok, but 'make' chokes on the MinGW lack of
support for 'langinfo' or 'socket'.
Is it necessary to install extra Msys/MinGW packages?
Is it necessary to use the /pc replacement stuff?
The weird thing is that 'configure' generates a 'config.h' file that
clearly flags the unavailability of 'langinfo' or 'socket', among
others. But 'make' attempts to use them anyway.
Has anybody successfully built gawk-5.1.0 on MSYS2? How?
Thanks in advance.
