On system where everything was working a few months ago, AIO builds started failing with 6.0.1 code. As a sanity check I created a fresh MSYS2 environment on another PC and the same code built, so I started digging into what was different on my older system.
However, when I ran the build for the second time on the new system I discovered that the build failed in the same/similar way on the new system as well, so I suspect some recent changes may be causing an issue. First question for devs is, are you able to run two successful builds in a row in your MSYS2 environment?
The errors I am seeing are:

Error in script "grampsaio64.nsi" on line 75 -- aborting creation process
The three errors that may be causing problems are (1) sed, (2) build_exe directory cannot be deleted and (3) the file mingw64/src/grampsaio64.nsi file isn’t valid so the installer isn’t generated.
If I clean the source folder by running git clean -xfd and run the build again, I get slightly different errors towards the end:
warning: no previously-included files matching '*.pyo' found anywhere in distribution
sed: -e expression #1, char 47: unknown option to `s'
Error: invalid script: no sections specified
Error - aborting creation process
The pyo warning is new, sed error is the same, and here the nsi file is empty so makensis fails entirely.
Any help would be appreciated.
