For building the release for *nix systems, make sure to install the dependencies as follows -

• cmake

• make
• libssl-dev

Then, run the following code snippet as administrator -

VVERSION='0.1.2-alpha'; wget -q -O vupdate.tar.gz "https://github.com/GhostVaibhav/vupdate/archive/refs/tags/v${VVERSION}.tar.gz"; tar xzf vupdate.tar.gz; cd vupdate-$VVERSION && mkdir build && cd build; cmake .. -DCOMPILE=0 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release > /dev/null && cmake --build . > /dev/null; cmake .. -DCOMPILE=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DDO_NOT_FORMAT=TRUE > /dev/null && cmake --build . --target install > /dev/null; cd vlib && cp -a ./include/. /usr/include/ && cp -a ./lib/. /usr/lib/; cd .. && cp ./vpack /usr/bin/ && cp ./vupdater /usr/bin/; cd ../..; rm -rf vupdate-$VVERSION; rm -f vupdate.tar.gz;
