Sorry, nothing personal here, I just need to say it because it happens too often:
- When will be the time to ask USERS to build on Windows, like for Linux USERS? Or are we second zone citizens?
- Building on Linux: it usually crashes in an impossible to read log, simply because Linux UX sucks.
- Deb packages are thrown-built but not tested, what's the point? Linux supply chain sucks.
- On Linux, error messages are just ... What "code 100" is supposed to mean? AFAIK, nobody provided a manual with error codes so why short codes with numbers? is it a dishwasher?

To me, everything is exactly in place to push people to use Windows, which also suck, like Mac (I had many, from 1994 PowerMac to Macbooks, then decided to switch).

Ok, I'll give a try to build it.
