the linux install script is for ubuntu only, it has apt-get in it. It might be better to just document the requirements and tell people they will need to install them.

Actually, we are trying to be as much as end-user friendly. Maybe we should split Install process into these sections:

  • Mac OS X
  • Ubuntu
  • Install from source

What do you think? @nhumrich @yasintoy

@nhumrich Sorry, my bad. I wrote that script. Perhaps we could try the setup-linux.sh be more flexible? Like it would check what is the GNU/Linux OS it's in, and then install the requirements as per the package manager for the particular OS.

Pseudocode:

if (platform == 'debian') then
    apt-get install requirements
else if (platform == 'arch') then
    pacman -S requirements
