I tried to build AOSP using the following commands:
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-11.0.0_r27
repo sync
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch aosp_x86_64-eng
make -j8
It runs for about 1.5 hours before erroring out. Here is what I see in the log:

My system has 64 gb of RAM and I tried lowering the j value but get the same results. Repo sync is successful.
I'm not an usual contributor to S/O but I spent a lot of time fixing this particular problem for someone so I thought it'd be nice if I gave you my solution for this.
zipinfo is likely crashing because there is a preloaded library called libAppProtection, installed in /usr/local, that crashes under the conditions imposed by the AOSP build. I had found a workaround for this particular problem but if the cause of the problem is the same as what I faced, you will have further problems down the line for which you won't find a workaround.
GDB stacktrace of 'fec' another program crashing the same way
In Firefox shows only blank pages - even about:config is just white it describes that the library is related to Citrix Workspace App SDK.
If you observe the same thing I did when running zipinfo or fec (in my case) with GDB, I can only recommend that you remove this program while you deal with building the AOSP sources. I know this has worked and did not cause any drawbacks for the client. Maybe just disabling the preloaded library in /etc/ld.so.preload would work but I have not tried that and since I don't know anything about Citrix, I would advise against doing that.
