Hi Jean,

thank you for testing!

I don't know if building on top of SolydK will work. Maybe you have to
build inside a virtual machine.

We also currently have an open issue, which you're most likely affected by:
https://www.whonix.org/forum/index.php/topic,48.75.html

It will probably be fixed in git tags higher than 7.7.9.1 (not yet
available, solutions still have to be found and implemented).

Cheers,
Patrick
