I’m trying to build nvim 0.7.2. I checked out the relevant tag and then did
make distclean && make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
After a lot of output, I’m seeing
[96/106] Performing install step for 'luv-static'
[0/1] Install the project...

So I’m wondering what I"m doing wrong? When I try to manually download the file https://luarocks.org/mpack-1.0.8-0.rockspec, there’s no issue, both via the browser and via curl.
I’m on KDE Neon 20.04, which is basically Ubuntu 20.04. I have installed the build dependencies like advised on the neovim wiki (on github).
