Thanks, that seems to have solved this problem. But, I keep running into other build problems. I've cherry-picked a few commits to fix issues so far, but I'm getting a few more problems that are less obvious. I'd been working on updating to daisy and was hoping to get dylan to build on the new laptop first to make sure the built image functions okay. I may need to go the other way around...
