This seems to be working fine for me here based on the instructions http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html#_building_debian_packages I did not do any configuration or building for RIP in http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html#Quick-Start
I have found it's not necessary to build RIP if you are building debs.. Perhaps that is causing your issue. Its taking a long time to build the docs which the link above seems to indicate should not be built by default so thats odd. Maybe I should have run ./configure in the /src directory to prevent this. On My chromebook running a clean Debian 11 container. Anyway, too late here so I'm off to bed. Will confirm it worked completely in the morning.
