#30 pip install fails on MSYS2/MinGW

[Ioannis Konstantelias]

Hi,

Here's what I get when I try to install it:

Collecting ruamel.yaml

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for ruamel.yaml.clib

I know that there's a specific build for MinGW here, but this doesn't solve my problem - I first encountered this error when I was trying to install another package that uses ruaml.yaml from PyPI.

Thanks
