Hi! GUI for journalctl is a great idea, and I happy that somebody already realizes it. I've passed all the installation steps but after running Run make -j5 i have don't understand how to find the program? Why it don't added to my PATH automatically? Please add instructions to readme.md how to fix it.

Sorry if I made any mistakes, it's my first issue on Github.

I founded that the necessary file (qjournalctl) is located in the same directory you had run make command. So you maybe want to move all the program folder to /opt if already installed it to ~ folder: mv ~/qjournalctl /opt/ And for the topic of this issue - create a symbolic link to make the program visible in PATH and have access from shell: sudo ln -s $(pwd)/qjournalctl /usr/bin/qjournalctl

Hi, as you've noticed, there are different targets the Makefile supports. (compile-only, vs. compile-and-install)

I've updated the instructions accordingly. Thanks for reporting this!
