Apologies for bringing up the stray "-a" invalid option. I have compiled OK to sandbox on a spare computer PySide. That, of course, says nothing about the VM's. I will repeat the experiment on a VM. So far my experimentation proves nothing, as I did change the procedure a little. Because there were failures in getting the source from git repositories, I separated that part out. Again, there were some easily recoverable errors in the downloads. They would not have been so easy to recover if the script tried to do all-in-one! Thank you for your patient advice - it will not be ignored. I am slow, unfortunately, but I will get there eventually. I will report my results on the list.
