Compiled kicad on msys2 followed http://kicad-source-mirror.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Documentation/development/compiling/index.html#building-kicad-from-source

It says there is no such file or directory but there is...

MSYS ~/src/MINGW-Packages/mingw-w64-kicad-git/src/kicad $ ls

_clang-format      cvpcb          lib_dxf            README.txt

copyright.h        INSTALL.txt    potrace            utils
CTestConfig.cmake  kicad          qa

this is what is inside bitmap2component

bitmap2cmp_gui.cpp       bitmap2component.cpp   CMakeLists.txt
bitmap2cmp_gui_base.cpp  bitmap2component.h     Info.plist
bitmap2cmp_gui_base.fbp  bitmap2component.icns
bitmap2cmp_gui_base.h    bitmap2component.rc

I must be missing something a path or file idk any help would be appreciated.

ohh not sure if this help figure anything out but it will keep compiling to around 71% and then tell me something about eeschema_kiface error.

Ensure that the path to bitmap2component is correct and contains no typos. Clean the build directory with make clean, then reconfigure and rebuild using cmake .. followed by make. Make sure your MSYS2 environment and all necessary dependencies are up to date. If issues persist, check for specific error messages and consider seeking help from the KiCad community.
