### Troubleshooting
If you see a message like this:
Configuring lzma-0.0.0.3...
clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-nopie' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
Cabal-simple_mPHDZzAJ_2.0.1.0_ghc-8.2.2: Missing dependency on a foreign
library:
* Missing (or bad) header file: lzma.h
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
If the header file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
It means that you need to install lzma library on your operating
system. The same might go for pkg-config. On macOS (it's more likely
to happen on macOS, as these packages are usually installed out of box on Linux), you need to run:
brew install xz
brew install pkg-config
### Plan B — just download the GEval binary
(Assuming you have a standard 64-bit Linux.)
