Hi,
just started from a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04.6 and wanted to document the necessary steps of building this in march '23:

Install requirements of yotta, leaving out easy_install pip (link)

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python-setuptools cmake build-essential ninja-build python-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev

Create VirtualEnv to protect Python Installation (Installing yotta with pip3/python3 can mess up your python installation!)

sudo apt install virtualenv
cd [workingdirectory]
virtualenv --python=$(which python2) yottaenv
source yottaenv/bin/activate

Install pip2

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py
python2 get-pip.py

Install Yotta inside your Virtual Environment

pip install yotta

Install requirements for microbit-samples

sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi binutils-arm-none-eabi srecord

Clone microbit-samples and build

git clone https://github.com/lancaster-university/microbit-samples.git
cd microbit-samples
yotta build

Hope this helps someone.
