     use Alien::MSYS2;
     my $root = Alien::MSYS2->msys2_root;

DESCRIPTION

    Please note that this module is somewhat experimental. I do not intend
    on intentionally making breaking changes, but because of the maturity
    of this module it may be unavoidable. If you need something more battle
    tested you should try Alien::MSYS instead.

    This Alien module provides the MSYS2 <https://msys2.github.io/> tools,
    which are useful for building many open source packages on the
    Microsoft Windows platform. When this module is installed, it will
    generally look for an existing MSYS2 install, if it is available, and
    if not it will attempt to download it from the internet and install it
    to a share directory so that it can be used by other Perl modules.

    Here is how the detection logic works:

    check for user override for download
