A clear and concise description of what the bug is. Bash completion to install at: /usr/share/bash-completion/completions No ZSH completion ✔ Dist files copied ✔ Config copied make: *** No rule to make target 'themes/themes/gruvbox/ts', needed by '/home/live/web-greeter-master/themes/themes/gruvbox/js'. Stop.

Steps to reproduce

ALSO tried installing web-greeter-3.5.2-debian.deb from https://github.com/JezerM/web-greeter/releases/tag/3.5.2

First using gdebi installer

output [sudo] password for live: Reading package lists... Error!

Expected behavior

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen. I expect a successful installation such like: Bash completion to install at: /usr/share/bash-completion/completions No ZSH completion ✔ Dist files copied ✔ Config copied  Gruvbox theme copied  Dracula theme copied ✔ Resources compiled with pyrcc5 ✔ Screensaver.so compiled ✔ web-greeter binary copied ✔ Build succeded [ -e "/" ] || mkdir -p "/" cp -R "/home/live/Downloads/web-greeter/build/install_root"/* "/" ✔ Install succeded

AND for gruvbox theme to run successfully using: web-greeter --debug
