Feature request: Add build support for other distros

[bitrot-alpha]

Fedora has slightly different conventions and package names, the Boost libraries they use are slightly different as well. I installed all the dependencies, but sunshine still won't build.

Boost is installed, but for whatever reason, CMake doesn't like it.

Fedora 33

sudo dnf install -y openssl-devel ffmpeg-devel boost-devel boost-static.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-devel opus-devel libXtst-devel libX11-devel libXfixes-devel libevdev-devel libxcb-devel

Also I had to change DISPLAY to :1 in sunshine.service.

Here are my build steps on a fresh install of Fedora 33

sudo dnf group install "Development Tools"

sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

sudo dnf install -y openssl-devel ffmpeg-devel boost-devel boost-static.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-devel opus-devel libXtst-devel libX11-devel libXfixes-devel libevdev-devel libxcb-devel cmake

git clone https://github.com/loki-47-6F-64/sunshine.git --recurse-submodules

cd sunshine/

mkdir build

cd build/

cmake ..

make

This should be on the front page for Fedora or pinned at the top for issues. I can confirm it works.

just tried on Fedora 35. I also required the libXrandr-devel package.
