Hello,
the current version of BZip2 available for MinGW-w64 is the ancient 1.0.6-4.
I updated these packages for those cross compilers to version 1.0.8-1.
The new palckages also provide the script file for supporting
pkg-config, see also:

https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin-apps/2025-June/044382.html

You can find the updated packages for x86_64 and i686 here:

https://github.com/carlo-bramini/packages-cygwin/tree/main/bzip2

The packages are binary compatible with the old ones, so they can be
used as a drop in replacement.
I hope that it could be possible to make them available to all users.

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.
