Cmake fails when strictly following BUILD_INSTRUCTIONS about sirikali

[mhogomchungu]

There is no error there.

"pwquality" package was not found and hence the support for it is disabled meaning when creating a new volume,you will not be told how strong your password is. There is a loss of functionality here because the package that provides it was not found.

external/system supplied "lxqt-wallet" package was not found and hence an internal copy of the package will be used instead. There is no loss of functionality here.

Just type "make" to build the package and it will build just fine.

Ok. Maybe BUILD_INSTRUCTIONS should be adapted?

Btw I tried compiling it on Mac but wasn't successful. Even with qt5 installed, cmake doesn't seem to find it. Did you try compiling it on Mac?

The project is currently linux only.

I dont have a mac and i have not put any though into porting it to other systems.

Porting the project to mac would need two things.

1. Mac version of libgcrypt and this seems to be doable since a mac version is present[1].An alternative is to disable secure storage of volume keys by disabling lxqt-wallet functionality.
2. Have a way of being informed about mount events.The current linux only implementation does this by monitory "/proc/self/mountinfo"[2]

I have updated build instruction documentations[1] to mention the two dependencies that were reported as not being found on your system.

SiriKali is now functional on a mac: #18
