configure: loading site script /mingw64/etc/config.site
configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh src/utils/config.sub


config.log attached.

This was due to mactype. Fix: https://github.com/msys2/msys2/issues/25

I'm unable to reproduce this on our win10 build machine and I don't really understand the bugreport and the resultion (what is mactype?).

Is there a way to reproduce this?

[cjke...@gmail.com]

mactype is a replacement for the font rendering engine on windows. Somehow, it messes with msys2 and all the processes spawned inside (including bash). So, a simple sed in a configure file was failing, which is why omnet++ was not compiling.

Don't worry about, everything is fixed now. If any users in the future come across this issue, then they know to disable mactype and that it has nothing to do with omnetpp.

Thanks for the info.
