Thank you again for your kind offer of access to such a machine but I
think it may be better long-term to work out why this is not failing for
me locally.

Learning the underlying reason why and how our environments differ
will tell us the way of solving this issue properly. By contrast,
simply reproducing on yours is, I fear, simply confirming what we
already know - ie. that it does not build for you.

Unfortuantely, this is "just a random package" from my point of view
so I am unlikely to find the bandwidth to set myself up with a new
machine/ environment very soon, hence why I posted my brief status
update earlier.


Best wishes,
