Hi

Windows (msys2) is completely dead in the water for m2005 due to a symlink added to the RTEMS source

The rtems tar file has this in it:

We recently battled this with newlib and that solution won't work here.

I have raised #3938 and will remove the link from the source tree. The test will need to be fixed at some point.

I can confirm this issue. I tried a workaround you find on the internet:

$ export MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict

$ tar xf rtems-5.0.0-m2005-1.tar.xz
tar: rtems-5.0.0-m2005-1/testsuites/libtests/tar01/symlink: Cannot create symlink to ‘home/test_file’: Operation not permitted
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

It seems I have a problem with symbolic links in general:

$ ln -s a b
ln: failed to create symbolic link 'b': Operation not permitted

If I unset MSYS, then the ln -s copies the file.

$ unset MSYS

$ ln -s a b

$ echo x > a

$ echo y > b

$ cat a
x

$ cat b
y

I tried to build the tools to check if the test runs. I got this in a mingw64 shell:

config: tools/rtems-gdb-9.1-1.cfg
error: shell macro failed: sh -c "/c/test-msys64/home/release/rsb/source-builder/sb/rtems-build-dep -c x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc  -I '-IC:/test-msys64/mingw64/include/python3.8 -IC:/test-msys64/mingw64/include/python3.8 -IC:/test-msys64/mingw64/include/python3.8 -IC:/test-msys64/mingw64/include/python3.8' -H Python.h": 1: sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file

In a msys2 shell I get:

$ ../source-builder/sb-set-builder --prefix=/opt/rtems/5 5/rtems-sparc
error: no hosts defaults found; please add
