Help needed building EC update on NovaCustom NV41 I7-1260P

[aluciani]

Dasharo version

Dasharo Heads-v0.2.0-2193-gd9a0cac

Dasharo variant

NovaCustom NV41 I7-1260P

Question text
I wanted to update the EC on my computer because the light on my keyboard no longer activates and I saw in the new version of the EC that a bug related to this had been resolved.
I regularly update HEADS that I build from https://linuxboot/heads, but I don't think this procedure updates the computer's EC.
I followed the EC build instructions:

git clone https://github.com/Dasharo/ec.git
cd ec
git checkout novacustom_nv4x_adl_v1.7.2
git submodule update --init --recursive --checkout
EC_BOARD_VENDOR=novacustom EC_BOARD_MODEL=nv4x_adl ./build.sh

But I get an error.

Makefile:64: src/arch//toolchain.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'src/arch//toolchain.mk'.  Stop.
Failed to build EC firmware : (2)

Did I miss something ?

Commands look fine, and work perfectly fine for me. What OS are you running? Can you provide a full log?
Are you running docker, or perhaps podman? Which versions?
The build environment is on the docker container already, so should be fairly portable.

Note: switching to 'novacustom_nv4x_adl_v1.7.2'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

Or undo this operation with:

  git switch -

Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false

HEAD is now at 2b2c17a tps65987: remove unused function
