Thank you! I will take a look at the instructions that we have and try to reproduce from scratch and see if I run into any issues  😊

I get what you are saying, around the fact that you have to pay the price once, and then you are all set!

I don't see there anything that we don't have.  I do see a lot of
stuff unrelated to building Emacs per se, something that just sounds
like personal preferences of whoever wrote that post.

I don't think we should be responsible for someone else's posts.  It
is better to maintain our instructions to be accurate and with all the
necessary details.

Please do tell if you find anything missing or incorrect, and we will
fix those deficiencies.

This is just the steep learning curve, something that each one of us
has to go through just once.  It is impossible to have all this
information in our installation instructions.
