So there was a thread on this back in February - I keep up with this
because I also would like the functionality - I've just failed in trying
to get it to work. Most likely skill issues on my part.
Thread here:

Good Luck - Randy

i did try both of the build methods and neither worked. I get "command

I would prefer a different format but I'm unaware of another file type
that can compress as well as mrsid (usable file sizes) that cover as
much territory (>200km2)
Thanks

Have you followed the steps you've linked to? Did either the
gdal-build-mrsid or gdal-mrsid-build work?
