Note that these binaries are compiled against libreadline7, so if your system only has libreadline8, you should symlink 8 to 7 with `sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.8.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.7`. This isn't a great solution, but it gets the job done. +### From a binary +Binaries can be downloaded from [here](https://builds.sr.ht/~armaan/gen-shell/commits/.build.yml).
