Hello, I am not familiar with Go, neither QML, so I followed the instructions for building Limetext from source, but I got this: $ go build $ go build gopkg.in/qml.v1: g++: exec: "g++": executable file not found in $PATH pwd is ~/src/github.com/limetext/lime-qml/main All env variables are set... All dependencies are installed via apt-get I am running amd64 3.16 kernel with elementary os distro.

Please, advice

apt-get install g++ perhaps? In either case, it's not ready for users yet but any help hacking on it is greatly appreciated
