Added a quick bash command for users to run the dev tools setup via bash using curl (most unix machines have both curl and bash)

Great, just realised a few lines down ./configure is missing -prefix=..., we might use this PR to fix that too.

Let me know what needs changing so I can add it.

It’s necessary to indicate the compiler where to look for the built dependencies, otherwise it won’t use them. https://github.com/NAVCoin/navcoin-core/blob/master/depends/README.md Von meinem iPhone gesendet

This was not the case for me, I did not have to point the ./configure command to my depends, it found the dependencies and used them.

Maybe this is only the case when specifying a HOST that is not the native machines host?

I guess we should just add a note to the build-unix.md to the depends README.

The note should be about building for other platforms via unix machine.

Actually, come to think of it, I see there is already a section on the build-unix.md file here: https://github.com/mxaddict/navcoin-core/blob/patch-1/doc/build-unix.md#arm-cross-compilation

It shows the use of --prefix=

Is this what you had in mind?

in my case I always had to use --prefix=
if the dependencies are found without it, it's very likely they are already installed in your system
