libXextlibXext problem when using CMake? #1080

Description

I'm on Windows 10 and I tried to build OpenSpades myself but in an easier way so I thought just download MSYS2 and Clone the repo and go to it, then create directory "build" and go to it and then just do cmake ..
Turns out it's not that easy and for some reason I need libXext even though that's a UNIX thing

# cd openspades

Paul@PAUL-PC MINGW64 ~/openspades
# mkdir build && cd build

Paul@PAUL-PC MINGW64 ~/openspades/build
# cmake ..

Everything's good and all but it's just the error with libXext
Is this a dependency of OpenSpades or something that it wants me to install it?
