building lineage os
You need atleast 32G of RAM or don't even bother trying to build LineageOS.
Note
- Enable

repo in/etc/pacman.conf
. - run...
source: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/devon/build/
paru -S lineageos-devel
mkdir -p ~/android/lineage
cd ~/android/lineage
repo init -u https://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b lineage-22.2 --git-lfs --no-clone-bundle
repo sync
repo sync will take a while..
Note
Note the output of breakfast devon
. It ends in an error.
The highlights I've added are indicating files being fetched and created:

** Don't have a product spec for: 'lineage_devon'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?
Note
I use adb
binary from android-tools
arch package. I also booted devon
(moto g32) with a fresh lineageos os install without gapps, and enabled
adb-run-as-root in Settings
after the usual stuff (developer mode after
tapping build number 7 times). I think this information is crucial because
in a previous attempt, I used adb
that came with flutter but I'm not certain
I had enabled rooted debugging.
The same error is reported here:
https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/8240.
With adb connection to devon...
