Trying to install , since doesn't work with snaps, I'm trying to get there with

`sudo apt install tcl-dev libmonoboehm-2.0-1 libjson-c-dev`

But I still get "configure: error: can't find the Boehm GC library. Please install it."

🤔

Okay, I misunderstood the stack. It's clearly not using any mono stuff, so `sudo apt install libgc-dev` fixed the situation and I can move forward.

Final list deplist to install on for me was:

`sudo apt install tcl-dev libgc-dev libjson-c-dev libreadline-dev`.

Now we `make`... GNU software is so 80s, omg. :3

Ok, `make` is done, let's see if the binary is there somewhere (notice `rev-cut-rev` pattern that I totally stole somewhere, not discovered myself):

`find -type f | rev | cut -d\/ -f1 | rev | grep -e '^poke'`

Now that we know that such binary exists, we can find it like this:

`find -type f | grep -e '/poke$'`

It ended up being in `./poke` directory. 🤦‍♀️

OK, it didn't work because default prefix is LFS, let's do `configure --prefix="$(pwd)"`.

`cat Makefile | grep prefix` shows `prefix = /home/sweater/gnu/poke-1.0/build`...

Okay, local install succeeded:
