This solves it for me:

cd apps \
&& git clone https://github.com/z00m128/sjasmplus.git && \
cd sjasmplus \
&& git submodule update --init --force --remote\
&& make clean \
&& make \
&& sudo -S make install

Running git submodule update --init --force --remote solves the issue. The issue seems to be that the git submodule doesn't trigger an install of LuaBridgez:

[submodule "LuaBridge"]
    path = LuaBridge
    url = https://github.com/vinniefalco/LuaBridge.git

The suggested way to get full repo is documented in INSTALL.md: git clone --recursive -j8 https://github.com/z00m128/sjasmplus.git

or if cloned without submodules the git submodule update --init --recursive should fix it.

Can you try in new folders both documented ways, if they work as intended? If not, then it's something to look at in detail, why those fail. Thank you.

I assume the documented sequence works, reopen in case it does not and show how it fails

Yep that works, thank you
