If only more people would care to try to build. Sadly most blame themselves when they fail and don't even dare to open an issue to resolve what they couldn't figure out.

I was in charge of an Android Bitcoin wallet for several years. My stance is:

* The bar is "reasonably technical person"

* I'm above that bar

* If I fail, a negative verdict is warranted

There is environment specific technical ability. One might be good at troubleshooting C builds and not Java. Perhaps a standard environment should be used, like a VM image, where many agree it's sufficiently configured for building a specific source language. You might find wallet devs aim to get it to build on that standard environment.
