MSYS2 pacman 404s when trying to download ngdevkit repo database #91

hello everyone,
I was trying to setup ngdevkit on Windows via msys2 and followed the instructions for adding the ngdevkit repository to my MSYS2 install.
Added the repo URL included in the msys2 section of the readme to my pacman.conf and ran pacman -Sy to test if it worked, and it said that the dciabrin repo URL 404'd so it couldn't retrieve ngdevkit.db.
If there's anything here that might be missing or broken on my end in order to get ngdevkit running under Windows, help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmm that's unexpected, I can fetch those from my MSYS2 environment:

I have a similar issue. I installed ngdevkit a year ago and I can't remember any issues and it still works properly. But today I tried to update msys2 and I got 404 error too:

OK let me have a look at it again, I'll report back shortly.

Also please note that I broke the packaging of the sound driver with a recent commit, so it needs to get fixed as well for the packages to work properly.

I think the issue is that you're trying to upgrade the MINGW64 version of ngdevkit packages, which has been deprecated in favor if the UCRT64 version.

With an up-to-date repository:

# pacman -Syy

The repository shows both the old MINGW64 version and the new UCRT64.

However the MINGW64 version of the package is now unavailable due to its deprecation.

This is less than ideal and confusing for the user... I am going to fix the ucrt64 package that was broken lately with the rework of nullsound, and once done I will fix the repository and update the doc to mention the deprecation and the upgrade path.

The ngdevkit packages should be fixed now, installing the nightly builds should work with:

# pacman -Syy
# pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-ngdevkit mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-ngdevkit-gngeo

I still need to tweak the package definition to deprecate the old mingw64 version of the package.

Meanwhile, @gabordo or @DeathEngine2 maybe you can try to verify that the commands above work for you?

Yes, it worked for me. Probably I should learn more about how msys2 works and reinstall it when I have a bit more time.

Hello. I'm brand new to msys2. I tried the command you linked but get the fallowing error.
