Unable to build samples on Ubuntu

I’m trying to use the IDK and I’m getting this error when I try to make any of the samples :

~/Downloads/11.0.811-IDK/samples/gles2$ make mkdir -p build/sources /home/julien/Downloads/11.0.811-IDK/platforms/Roku4/toolchain/bin/arm-roku-linux-gnueabi-gcc -std=c99 -mcpu=cortex-a9 -mthumb -fvisibility=hidden -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wall -Wno-parentheses -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -I/home/julien/Downloads/11.0.811-IDK/platforms/Roku4/include -I/home/julien/Downloads/11.0.811-IDK/platforms/Roku4/usr/include -MMD -MP -c sources/spng.c -o build/sources/spng.c.o /home/julien/Downloads/11.0.811-IDK/platforms/Roku4/toolchain/bin/arm-roku-linux-gnueabi-gcc: 1: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string make: *** [../common/rules.mk:79: build/sources/spng.c.o] Error 2

Does anybody have an idea on what is causing this issue on the samples provided by Roku ? Is there something I can fix on my system ? I’m on Ubuntu 22.04

    to answer my own question, it looks like the roku gcc compiler will only work on ARM systems, so it won’t work on M1 macbooks, which is my current system. Emulating Ubuntu won’t work either. Virtualising might but it’s currently extremely slow for me, and unusable.
