Michael,
  Try running the build a second time.  The log shows that the .sha1 file for nmap is not being downloaded.  This is a checksum used to validate that the component build file downloaded without any corruption.  But if the file is already downloaded (which it will be on a second run) then the build process does not look for a .sha1 file or do the checksum (it is assumed to be okay).  Now-a-days download corruption is extremely unlikely, so you should be good.

I have been doing a custom build of Astlinux for years, and am able to keep up-to-date by merging the changes Lonnie makes into my build every few months.  Occasionally I run into a problem like this.

Hi Devs

Its been a long time coming and we have been able to hang out for a good while but we are at the stage that we are going to need to build our own image.
The main trigger for this is our desire to take our system to the next level with a completely redesigned portal for direct access by customers and partners.
This will entail the updating of PHP, overlaying the incredibly stable and low footprint Astlinux core which we have no desire to move from.

In our first steps we have attempted to build our own AstLinux image by closely following this guide: https://doc.astlinux-project.org/devdoc:documentation.
The “First Build” seemed to work fine, however, once we got to the “Custom Build” the build failed (log attached). The only additional packages selected were nmap and sipp.

Here are the specs of our build system (hosted on Vultr):
•         OS: Debian 12 x64
•         vCPU/s: 2 vCPUs
•         RAM: 2048.00 MB

Thanks so much for your help.

This is a new and exciting journey for us moving forward and Im expecting lots of hurdles but also expecting amazing outcomes.

Regards
Michael Knill
