Readme installation steps are incorrect for Linux about meshlib HOT 4 OPEN

Could you specify your Linux distro version and attach the log files of the building process? The missing dependencies might indicate that the automatic package installation is not supported on your platform, we'll investigate and resolve it if possible.

The build process description in both Readme files will be updated later.

I use Pop OS 22.04 which is based on Ubuntu. The issue is that the readme itself is out of date. For instance, it doesn't state to update the submodules recursively. build_source.sh is currently build_sources.sh in the readme as well.

I've also tried building both Ubuntu and the Fedora 39 docker images without success.

Have you been able to follow the steps to follow the docker images for them to build successfully locally?

The fixes for the building process on Pop OS (and other Ubuntu-based distributions) are available in the feature/ubuntu_build branch and will be merged soon. You can try them out.

I was able to build the Docker images for both Ubuntu 22.04 and Fedora 39. What kind of error do you get?

Following the feature/ubuntu_build I still cannot install MeshLib. Despite having ZLIB installed on my machine. When running ./scripts/build_thirdparty.sh I get the error:
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.22/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message): Could NOT find ZLIB (missing: ZLIB_LIBRARY ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR) (Required is at least version "1.1.2") Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-3.22/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:594 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) /usr/share/cmake-3.22/Modules/FindZLIB.cmake:120 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS) libzip/CMakeLists.txt:179 (find_package)
