Hi, I can confirm it is doable if they examine the scripts prepare_release_env.sh and install_deps.sh.
Instead of running them right away they can just try to run them step by step manually. Right now, prepare_release_env.sh fails for missing files it needs from debian repos which are no longer available. When that happens you either use a newer (potentially incompatible) version or find the old somewhere, download manually and disable the download on the script. For my environment I ended up creating a minimal version of prepare_release_env.sh to create the chroot environment with gcc, binutils and openssl and then using a modified install_deps.sh that installs the static libraries needed. > > I would also mention here that i wrote notes about how i set up original > Linux release environment there [1].
