Not without the error messages that you omitted.

In general I'd recommend against building an image just "because you
can". Building images is not a prerequisite to building additional
packages.

Like everyone else we have finite resources and while we do provide the
build system it's not a priority to handle support for it.

For packages that are not available from the feeds, feel free to try a
build yourself and ask for help if things break. Time permitting, we
will do our best to assist you.

But for anything that is available (images or packages from the feeds)
please try to play nice with developer time and save yourself and us
the hassle of rebuilding/running into build problems.

Thanks,

Rene
