devkitPro's fork of MSys2 lost access to packages such as build-essential #49

Title.

I installed the Windows version of devkitPro for reasons straight from the installer, booted up msys2_shell.bat, ran pacman -Syu and then proceeded to try to install certain packages via pacman -S, more specifically I used pacman -S make git build-essentials libpng-devel pugixml pkg-config. The result?

warning: make-4.4-1 is up to date -- reinstalling error: target not found: build-essentials error: target not found: libpng-devel error: target not found: pugixml warning: pkgconf-1.9.4-1 is up to date -- reinstalling

The warnings are whatever, but the packages that were available before and now are not available anymore are a tad concerning.

Were they renamed or something like that?

EDIT: Typing build-essential gives the same "target not found" error btw.

make, git and pkg-config are already installed in the devkitPro bundle we supply.

the rest aren't msys2 packages so I guess you're getting mixed up with something else.
