Hi again :D
The issue for the modified binaries was fixed last week and the package
built successfully, without any failures. The updated package can be found
here[1]

After that to check if kotlin can build from itself, I tried testing as per
the workaround specified by ebourg in the last mail.
Created a clean lxc container and installed the kotlin .deb file. Checked
if the kotlinc compiler was working or not? Yes, the basic functionalities
work fine.
But, here is the case: I tried building the kotlin package again(to check
is rebuilding is possible without bootstrap), by removing some of the
dependencies from the bootstrap package, but it failed with the following
errors.
```

```
It fails to find kotlin-Gradle-plugin in offline mode. And FWIW, we need to
package kotlinx libraries and package them, but here is the thing the
kotlinx has .kt files which need kotlin compiler itself to build them.
It looks like a cyclic dependency to me, because if we don't have kotlinx
the compiler won't function. Please correct me, if I'm mistaken.
Is there any other workaround/suggestion if possible? For now, I'm trying
to investigate if I can package kotlinx packages somehow.
Thanks and regards,
