Good morning,
I have identified a couple of packages which are prerequisites for compiling
synchronet on linux that you might want to add to the list:

sudo
libcap2-bin

I recently added a new VM install for testing purposes and, upon attempting to
compile sbbs I received errors regarding these two packages being missing.  I
sure would have assumed that sudo would be included in even a very base install
of any distribution but I guess not!  :)
