Guys, it took around 1 month to reach this stage..... but finally I did it ;) by removing the -j4 flags

I am following below wiki available at MinGW-w64 FAQ section - Compiling a Multilib Toolchain For native windows builds you need to use here junction points https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/wiki2/Answer%20Multilib%20Toolchain/ I tried replacing /d switch (creates a symbolic directory link) with -/j switch (creates a directory junction) but the results are same. Any further guidance...

I would appreciate if someone can help me with below script as I am failing to make it work. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23#!/bin/sh directory=/c/Temp ar='mpfr-4.0.2.tar.xz' cd "${directory}" && tar -xf "${ar}" linkname="${ar%-*}" target="${directory}/${ar%.tar*}/" # Uncommenting below line creates a valid symlink in Windows 7 from Msys2; screen attached # cmd //c 'mklink /d mpfr c:\temp\mpfr-4.0.2' # However if I try same with variables, single quote prevents the substitution...
