INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL
We haven’t managed to reproduce it locally, though. I have followed the steps you listed exactly on Debian Linux with OpenJDK 8u322 installed, but everything worked fine, the subgit install $repo_path invoked after 3.3.14 installed worked well starting SubGit daemon and SubGit operations worked well, too. So I assume, it might have been a local issue, possibly permissions-related, could it be the case?
