See #1 (comment).

Support is in the repo, but it's not complete and disabled.

We parse http://repo.msys2.org/msys/x86_64/msys.db.tar.gz which contain processed packages database, but we can't reliably derive information on source packages from there (we need that to filter out *-devel and other subpackages). There are %BASE% and %NAME% fields, but we can't rely on them as they are not necessarily related. The best way would be to parse PKGBUILDS directly, but we don't have shell parser (#166) for this yet.
