What I was pointing out was that you took a particular route with a relevant link as a starting point and managed to build successfully.
You’ve now expanded that route a little more which now clarifies you didn’t go the ./configure route but actually used the autobuild script and modified it accordingly to suit you purpose and obviously installed any missing dependencies when prompted.
I supplied simple copy/paste instructions using the autobuild method a while back for installing on Ubuntu 22.04 lts x86_64 platform which I believe helped quite a few new users.
If you haven’t already done so maybe you could do the same for the RPI platform. I’m sure others would benefit from this.
