I am working with an autotools project. It works on the CI however, when I run it on my work PC it freezes when running make

checking for af77... no
checking for xlf90... no
checking for f90... no
checking for pgf90... no
checking for pghpf... no
checking for epcf90... no
checking for gfortran... gfortran
checking whether we are using the GNU Fortran 77 compiler... yes
checking whether gfortran accepts -g... yes
checking the maximum length of command line arguments...

The workflow I am running locally is located here

I have also investigated some old resources, and found this. However, it has been of no use,

My workaround was that I identified with Process Explorer (Former SysInternals tools) the checking sh.exe and killed it. The compilation (or configure) process continued.

I've read that this is a bug in CMake x.x version and it was corrected, but for me it was with MSYS2 (precisely under "MSYS2 MinGW x64" prompt).

I solved it by running:

autoupdate
autoreconf -i
autoconf
automake

and praying it still works
