I tried to compile the source code but without success!!!

I follow the tuto from here

https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Download-the-latest-source-code-from-GitHub done

  1. Compile from source using Ubuntu -> ERROR
  2. Compiling from source using a Debian-based Linux Distribution ERROR
I tried Ubuntu 12, Ubuntu 14, Ubuntu 16, Ubuntu 18 and the same result not get compiled I TRIED IN x86 and x64 and the same result....

I have in home directory https://github.com/RMerl/am-toolchains too.

And all automated scrips for compile are from 2015 and don't work.

Any recent tuto for RT-AC5300?


I tried other models and get results like this

Edit. sorry I didn't see "tried other models".
There is error message. You need to install liblzo2-dev.
Here is the list what I installed to compile merlin firmware.
Code: 
dpkg --add-architecture i386

apt-get update

apt-get install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev m4 bison gawk flex \
g++ gengetopt git gitk zlib1g-dev autoconf autopoint \
libtool shtool autogen mtd-utils intltool sharutils libstdc++5 texinfo \
dos2unix xsltproc u-boot-tools device-tree-compiler python qemu \
gperf liblzo2-dev uuid-dev build-essential lzma-dev liblzma-dev \
lzma binutils-dev patch cmake libglib2.0-dev gtk-doc-tools \
