Successfully building this with yotta and Ubuntu 20.04 in 2023

Hi,
just started from a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04.6 and wanted to document the necessary steps of building this in march '23:

Install requirements of yotta, leaving out easy_install pip (link)

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python-setuptools cmake build-essential ninja-build python-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev

Create VirtualEnv to protect Python Installation (Installing yotta with pip3/python3 can mess up your python installation!)

sudo apt install virtualenv
cd [workingdirectory]
virtualenv --python=$(which python2) yottaenv
source yottaenv/bin/activate

Install pip2

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py
python2 get-pip.py

Install Yotta inside your Virtual Environment

pip install yotta

Install requirements for microbit-samples

sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi binutils-arm-none-eabi srecord

Clone microbit-samples and build

git clone https://github.com/lancaster-university/microbit-samples.git
cd microbit-samples
yotta build

Hope this helps someone.

No target documentation file or test is named. Review the repository's existing build instructions, then verify the listed Ubuntu 20.04.6 setup and yotta build steps; done means the reproducible requirements and commands are incorporated without ambiguity.
