I’ve been considering trying vcpkg as a replacement for jhbuild, not realizing that it depends on MSys2 and doesn’t do a good job of tracking the dependencies. Reading that thread leads me to believe that the correct path is to replace jhbuild with pacman.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>John Ralls</div><div><br></div></body></html>
