Build error on Linux: gn.py: Could not find checkout in any parent of the current path. This must be run inside a checkout.

[theridev]

System Details

• OS: Debian 12 Bookworm
• Thorium Version 130.0.6723.158

Problem
I did all the steps to build Thorium from source code (using the documentation). However, when I try to run gn args out/thorium I get this error:

gn.py: Could not find checkout in any parent of the current path.
This must be run inside a checkout.

Did you read the FAQ?
yes. None of the answers are for me.

Additional Notes
There are also some errors when running version.sh

Current Thorium version is: 130.0.6723.158

 IMPORTANT: If you ran setup.sh without any flags, you must also run ./patch_ac3.sh for AC3/E-AC3 support.
  Enjoy Thorium!

There was no tools folder in the root directory of Thorium. Once added it throws this error:

Emmm I suspect you didn't place the Chromium code checkout correctly, it should be placed in the $HOME directory or in the directory corresponding to the environment variable.

Also, the new version is not yet fully ready to compile.

[theridev]

It is in the home directory.

Can you upload your current environment variables?
