I had to grab that layout file here. I also statically defined my paths to all the rest of the files that come up as missing in wincalls' makefile. After that, plus a change to the linker used (gcc instead of ld, done in the main makefile), I was able to get it running. I used AI to help me figure it out though, so I'm only half-understanding what I actually did.

Thanks for information! Very deep research. So you could bulid successfully it from source? If i want build it here i do need replace file to yours?

@12sunflowers say:

Thanks for information!

Have you tried a more versatile and native way: https://github.com/FS-make-simple/shake ? It will be more reliable than this craft.

@zvezdochiot
Thanks i will try

yes I was ultimately able to build it on ZorinOS Pro 18.

I had to talk to gpt4o, try individual commands (including the FIND command), and sometimes retry... then took notes for future me and anyone who might want to compile on Debian 12 (technically Peppermint OS bookworm):

sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev ntfs-3g-dev
sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crt1.o /usr/lib64/crt1.o
sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crti.o /usr/lib64/crti.o
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/12
sudo cp /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/crtbegin.o /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/12/crtbegin.o
sudo cp /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/crtend.o /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/12/crtend.o
sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libntfs-3g.so /usr/lib64/libntfs-3g.so.x.0.0 # I figured this out on my own :3
sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crtn.o /usr/lib64/crtn.o
sed -i.bak '/-lgcc/d' Makefile

All commands were run and the build completed successfully.
Edited for clarity, and for adding crtend.o coz I missed documenting that step earlier.
