Andy, thanks. I know how to build it, and have done it on the pi. My understanding is the buildbot blockage is because it has been running on a pi which is clearly not desirable. I wonder if Sebs new buildbot could build for the pi using the Raspberry cross compilation method as I mentioned in https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/2349 Have a look at David Smith's Repo I linked to and his upstream source. You just need to update the userpatches and this script https://github.com/djsftree/rpi-img-builder/blob/master/files/userscripts/uscripts
In the past when I ran this, we were constrained because we needed vtk for python and it took many hours to build. Now I think it's included in the Debian 12 repositories.
