The PKGBUILD and patches are here: >=20 > https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-packages/tree/master/guile Btw, if there's no native MinGW port of Guile, then the MSYS2 port is of little use. Guile is being used as an extension language in an increasing number of GNU packages (Lilypond, GDB, and Make, to name just a few). Since you cannot link MinGW programs against MSYS2 libraries, users will be unable to have Guile-enhanced MinGW ports unless a native MinGW port of Guile is available.
