Make sure to install the required linux deps like so:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgomp1 libatlas-base-dev liblapack-dev libsqlite3-dev

Also, does your system support AVX2 instructions? The default sqlite-vss build uses AVX2 (because of Faiss), which might be causing the SIGILL error (which is "illegal instruction)
