Hi, thank you so much for the report and for the helpful information!
If you like, you can find the github repository in the project info and submit this as a change - the repo has had some useful updates from Altazimuth to really streamline the building process with a cross-platform CMake solution, so hopefully it should be easy to get running on your Linux distro.
One thing to bear in mind is that you'll have to manually copy the "res" folder to the built executable output location or it will crash.
