Needed libyara-dev dependency not documented #13

Closed mosherbrian closed 5 years ago

On Ubuntu 18.04 the installation instructions are incomplete. The libyara-dev package is required to build, otherwise the build fails with this message:

~/dexcalibur$ npm install

Fixing this requires you install the missing package:

sudo apt-get install libyara-dev
