I am running a linux app on a Debian 11 arm 64 in debug mode and everything is fine, please see the logs in my github issue because it was too long for SO.
When i try to run it in release or profile mode, the flutter tool doesn’t seem able to compile :

Edit : The issue comes from something ran by ninja :

Answer
I have found the solution, i had to increase my RAM to 4Go on my Debian 11 from 1Go.
I had not enough memory to be able to compile in release mode.
