Re: How long to build from source?

[Benny Siegert <bsiegert%gmail.com@localhost>]

The short answer: It depends.

Slightly longer: Does the laptop have an SSD, an NVMe disk or a
spinning hard drive? Which build options do you choose -- for
instance, do you want to build X as well, do you want to build the
graphics acceleration stuff (which requires building LLVM IIRC), etc.
pp.

I think it's going to be a couple hours. You could run the build
overnight if you want.
