Prerequisite (if you're using HAOS)

Manual install dependencies see here.

Important

This custom component installation is considered advanced
should only be used if one is an expert in managing a Linux operating system.

/tmp is mounted noexec on HAOS so it can't compile, A workaround is to do this inside the container.
