Have you actually tried? It's not like you need a week to do it, more
like couple of hours. Try it, and see if it works. If it does not,
copy/paste the errors you get here, and we'll try to solve them.

You should be able to build, even if it means setting up some
environment first (in user-space, so you don't even touch the system).
