After running make, I get the following error:

Thanks for the report; this is a duplicate of #53.

freakboy3742 commented 5 years ago

Well, it works; you just have to have obtain a copy of bzip2 from somewhere. The URL in #53 is at least one source; it's just not clear if that version is official. Put that file in the downloads directory, and the build will work.

I've just checked, and a new official location is available (which was the old location before bzip2.org was used). I've updated the Makefile to reflect this.

Awesome thank you so much
