During installation I noticed that compilation fails on my Debian stretch without package libdpkg-perl.
So maybe append to the instruction one point at first:
apt-get install g++ make libdpkg-perl
I think this is not obvious for beginners.

Hello, @mentalMedley
Thank your for the issue!

But it seems it's not worth it. It is hard to maintain all dependencies for all popular Linux distributives. Various distributives have different dependencies for RUM building. Even different version of same distributive may have different dependencies. For example, Ubuntu or CentOS don't have libdpkg-perl package.

@Dmitry-k42: What you really want to install is build-essential. It has all the basic dependencies like g++ to start compiling any C program.
