Which OSes are supported by gr-gsm

All releases of gr-gsm are automatically tested with following GNU/Linux distributions:

• Debian testing
• Ubuntu 16.04
• Kali rolling

This is the list of distributions for which we can assure that gr-gsm can be compiled and it works on them (for the extent of automatic tests). It is course not a full list of supported OS'es:

• since the beginning of gr-gsm there exist package for Arch Linux, that was created by Yuval Adam,
• Mac OS X seems to be working now, however as we don't have the hardware, we are unable to test proper installation or function.
