Is this how you are invoking the compile? As far as I am aware, there is no such project called “S905” - see the /projects directory in the source for supported projects (or the readme here [GitHub - RasPlex/OpenPHT-Embedded: OpenPHT-Embedded is OpenPHT running on LibreELEC](https://github.com/RasPlex/OpenPHT-Embedded))

What actual device are you compiling for? You probably want something like `DISTRO=OpenPHT PROJECT=WeTek_Play ARCH=arm make image` if you are using the WeTek play. Or are you just looking to rebuild OpenPHT, (i.e. the program) not OpenPHT-embedded (i.e. the OS)?
