Error while building project (LODE)

[SanTho]

on executing the command → make 2>&1 | tee build.log

I receive error, mentioned below

You can downgrade gawk, see here: [ABANDONED] Re: Build fail on Libgpg-error on Windows with gawk 5.0

You can also run the steps mentioned in https://cygwin.com/install.html:
1.) Run the setup binary
2.) Choose view: “Full”
3.) Search for “gawk”
4.) In the drop down menu, choose “4.2.1-1”
5.) Go ahead

I faced the same problem and can prove it works.
