Gotcha, carry on. I've just never used it like that only recovery.

I was building in a "clean chroot" not chrooting.(guess I was chrooting but differently to how I chrooted before)   https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot   As to why, well the developer suggested it,   https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/auracle-git     Your second post mentions one common use as " Building packages in a clean chroot. "    Building in a clean chroot and then installing solved the glitch so I am happy. 😋

One day, my man. I am not a wealthy man so it may take me a few years but that is my end goal.

Nice
