Tried to follow https://github.com/espruino/Espruino/blob/master/README_Building.md to build bangle js 2. Used a 24 Ubuntu default installation but got some problems. Hope you can help me.

Provision.sh didn't work so I used the manual way, but I had to change the commands and finally got all requirements installed. But it seems that python 3 is not working because I get the rangex range error. So tried to install Python2.

For smaller things I used the github actions. But now I want to integrate some more complex c code and want to do compile locally. The github action uses ubuntu 20. So maybe that's the trick?

What's the easisest and fastest way to get a local build environment running. Thank you so much!

22.04 works too, 24.04 uses python 3.12 which does not work with nordic nrfutil, python 3.11 would work

I am using 22.04 but maybe virtualenv could help on 24.04?

or maybe it is 3.11? I don't have 24.04 installation here right now, just checked and 22.04 has python 3.10

Thank you so much. Then I will just use an older ubuntu and will be happy.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
