Additional context
failed to install / build on ubuntu 18

[skrtdev]

You named your project skrtdev/novagram, just edit your composer.json and set a different name for your project, e.g. myname/mybot

[skrtdev]

Also, you cloned the repository, this is not the way to install it. In order to use it, just create a folder for your bot, create a file named bot.php, paste one of the examples in that file, and do
composer require skrtdev/novagram
