Motivation / Problem
Setup time for MSYS2 is quite slow (~90s) because we don't use the default installation, meaning MSYS2 is downloaded and installed every time.
And we also set the action to update the installation, using more time.
Then our packages are installed.
Description
With this change, it's more like for
vcpkg
, we just use the installation available in the virtual environment without updating it, and install our packages.Setup time is reduced by ~60s.
