I see your point. For me this is not only about catching missing Gradle or ANDROID_HOME early, but also about detecting Java build issues earlier when working on Android-specific changes. It also helps during development, since caching GRADLE and ANDROID_HOME allows running make directly in the build directory without having to re-specify the environment or re-run build scripts when changing make parameters, similar to the usual Linux workflow. But I understand the concern about adding complexity to the build system. If this is not something you'd like to include, I'm fine with dropping it. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/10438#note_134352
