Have you tried running a clean on it? It seems like it errors out because you have previously existing files. Also, I don't think you need to run sudo before, just let the script request it.

Hope that helps.

Try sudo make clean then run again sudo make all.
If this doesn't work, try sudo make clean stash then run again sudo make all.
If this doesn't work, try (warning: this deletes your virtual macOS disk image) sudo make clean stash stashvm then run again sudo make all
