It reads like the author doesn’t know what containers are. Because this is actually a great use case for containers unless I’m missing something.
Now, do I want reverse engineering software from someone who in 2026 doesn’t know of a better way to manage dependencies than “tell AI to install everything”? Not particularly lol
Install Visual Studio 2022, or apt install build-essential / xcode-select --install
NOW distro repo is fine, but only if you use an APT based distro?
and then 3 more dependencies it tells the agent to install from websites.
The weirdest thing is you can get much better results from AI. I’m 99% sure this person gave the AI particularly bad instructions to generate the install instructions, or used a cheap, crappy model.
It is a self-contained runbook with explicit verification gates at every step — preflight checks, building libghidra, installing the LibGhidraHost Ghidra extension, building ghidrasql, and a first live query. Hand it to your agent and let it drive the install; intervene only if a gate reports a failure.
It’s real

This is… uh…

Also:
It’s Eclipse Temurin not Eclipse Adoptium. And why not install from distro repo?

Please kill me
Even the install instructions are written by AI. Good grief
Look what they have to do to mimic a fraction of
tar -xaf!
