So I've done that. Unfortunetely while testing the script it could build
a firmware but one that bricked my phone :-/ Opened up another thread
for that issue.

In any case, I'm currently building stock-i18n versions only. When I add
i18n support and can properly test it, I'll release it.

One thing that I've implemented that I think build.sh should implement
itself: Check for presence of adb, autoconf2.13 and ccache BEFORE
starting to build anything. It's super frustrating when you start a
build, go grab some coffee and return half an hour later to see the
build script has failed because some dependency was missing.

The script I wrote checks for presence of each of those and gives sane
error messages (i.e. advises what the user should do and names
Mint/Ubuntu package names).

If I get my phone working again, I'll report back here.

Cheers,
Johannes
