Not to belabor the point, but I would recommend (to you and anyone else
in the same situation) to take a look at the Genodians article.  Stefan
has wrapped various docker commands into simple script commands,
covering downloading the container image, running it, deleting it, etc.

I've never used docker before either, and still haven't really, but I
used it as a little learning experience to watch the actual docker
commands that his script issues, just for curiosity.

Long story short, it's a lot easier than either messing with my
installed build tools or updating the source for an old release.

  FWIW,
