Problem with CMake makefiles generator

0

I'm going to go on this tutorial on how to install allegro 5 with MSYS2.

But I have a problem. By the time I'm going to run the command

cmake \ -G"MSYS Makefiles" \ -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH:PATH=/mingw64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/ \ -DWANT_MONOLITH=on \ ../allegro

I get this error CMake Error: Could not create named generator MSYS Makefiles

I did not find anything on the internet to solve this problem. From what I noticed the generators that appear are related to the installed programs, does installing msys (first version) help?

Now I also have to install some tutorial packages like mingw-w64-x86_64-dumb and mingw-w64-x86_64-pkgconf . But at the moment they are not my priority.

I've found a solution to this for a long time.

The solution is to use the shell of mingw-w64 instead of msys2 .
