Re: [feature/internal-msys] thoughts of a more function windows package

[Nikolay Kudryavtsev]

You technically can make your own msys distribution, by choosing a base 
package as old as you want and then installing extras from the package 
archives manually downloaded from msys2 binary cache.

But yeah, I don't think anyone would force anyone to use the 
msys2-bundled installation, I just wanted to note that maintaining such 
distribution seems like too much work for the benefit it provides.

In the ideal world we'll have something like a bundled configure-like 
package that would test for those POSIX utilities and then show what 
you're missing and maybe install them for you.
