 # virtual or real machine
 
+For virtual machine such as with vagrant, at $NTECH_ROOT (aka top-level directory containing all CFEngine repositories), init an ubuntu-20.04 vagrant machine so it has access to all your repositories.
+
+vagrant init ubuntu/focal64
+vagrant ssh
+# note however, that currently you will need to copy /vagrant to a non shared filesystem most likely as vboxsf type doesn't support required hard and soft links for packaging :(
+cp -R /vagrant ~/workspace
+
+And then do the following as you would on a real machine:
 ./setup.sh # install needed dependencies/packages/etc
 ./build.sh # run the build, should generate a package
 
 don't use ./clean.sh ./run.sh or ./shell.sh those are specifically for containerized/docker build
+
+# manual debugging on-host
+
+cat buildscripts/ci/build.sh
+# now export the environment variables there (and adjust as needed)
+export BUILD_TYPE=DEBUG
+export ESCAPETEST=yes
+export TEST_MACHINE=chroot
+
+then take each step one-at-a-time or re-run as needed
+
+./buildscripts/build-scripts/install-dependencies
+
+Note that you can provide an argument to install-dependencies to just build ONE dependency, such as
+
+./buildscripts/build-scripts/install-dependencies lmdb
+
+If you change the version of a dependency the cache for that should be skipped and the dep rebuilt from scratch.
