Error relating to C++ compiler when running ./configure on Windows

OK, it does look like there are issues with recent versions of MSYS2, as reported in this post and this one… Can I ask you to try the following:

  • bring your MSYS2 installation up to date (instructions here)

  • bring your MRtrix3 installation up to date:

    $ git checkout master 
    $ git pull
    
  • try running configure & build using the MSYS2 version of python (rather than the MinGW version):

    $ /usr/bin/python ./configure
    $ /usr/bin/python ./build
    

If that still doesn’t work, please post your configure.log file - it might give us a hint as to where the problem might be…
