I am sure I wlll have questions so I am documenting the steps as I take them.
This is just a test so I can eventually build an image for a WNDR4300v2.
As suggested in this thread :
I am starting with the x86_64 build root as a first step to gain experience.
Starting with : https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/install-buildsystem
I have all the requisite packages installed and I have cloned the repository and checked out the 18.06 branch.
./scripts/feeds update -a completed but....
./scripts/feeds install -a ... error ...
WARNING: Makefile 'package/feeds/packages/nfs-kernel-server/Makefile' has a dependency on 'rpcbind', which does not exist
there were a number of similar warnings.

Installing -dev packages eliminated all of them and this one about rpcbind was new.
Been stuck on this error for a day. searched openwrt site via google for "make download" and found this page https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/use-buildsystem
~/src/openwrt$ ./scripts/feeds install rpcbind
WARNING: Makefile 'package/feeds/packages/nfs-kernel-server/Makefile' has a dependency on 'rpcbind', which does not exist
WARNING: No feed for package 'rpcbind' found
So, I ignored the error ran make, creating a .vdi image which seemed to boot just fine in vbox.
I am guessing if I try to mount an nfs share I will fail.
I also tried make download but rpcbind is not among the packages downloaded.
~/src/openwrt$ make download

If I browse https://git.openwrt.org/feed/ and use the search feature to look for rpc it locates
|project/librpc-uclibc.git|Standalone librpc forked from...|Git|3 years ago|summary | shortlog | log | tree|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|project/rpcd.git|OpenWrt ubus RPC daemon|Git|7 weeks ago|summary | shortlog | log | tree|
Since the rpcbind package does not exist then should the nfs-server depend on librpc or libtirpc instead? Or should the rpcbind package actually exist even though it does not?
edit: I created a folder "my_packages" and referenced it in the default.feeds.conf . Ran ./scripts/feeds update -a and ./scripts/feeds install -a . The same error appears
./scripts/feeds install -a
WARNING: Makefile 'package/feeds/packages/nfs-kernel-server/Makefile' has a dependency on 'rpcbind', which does not exist
there is only one reference to rpcbind in that Makefile:
define Package/nfs-kernel-server
$(call Package/nfs-kernel-server/Default)
TITLE:=Kernel NFS server support
DEPENDS+= +kmod-fs-nfsd +kmod-fs-nfs +rpcbind
endef
Is there another strategy for addressing this error message?
