Here's what I did to make it running without any problems.

Make sure you have all the necessery packages installed.
sudo apt install build-essential git libncurses5-dev zip

Git is not required, but I just prefer to git clone golded from github repo.
Which is:
https://github.com/golded-plus/golded-plus

From the directory where you would like to store source files run this
git clone https://github.com/golded-plus/golded-plus.git

Cd into golded-plus and run ./dist-gpl.sh, just make sure that it is flagged as
 executable.
If not "chmod +x dist-gpl.sh" it first.

That's it. You'll have binaries in the "bin" directory and zipped dist in the
sources root dir.
I copy binaries to /usr/local/bin, where my husky binaries resides.
You would probably need to copy gedlnx, gnlnx and rddtlnx (if you need it)
binaries.
There also will be a "golded" bash script which supposed to be some kind of
launcher
that suppose to fix issues with CP866 charset, it requires "screen" package to
be installed to run,
but I don't use it. I just start golded with gedlnx.

Don't forget to place configs into ~/.golded, you will find config samples in
the golded-plus dir
you cloned earlier. There is also a ways to change the default config file
location.

Please note that golded won't start without proper config (golded.cfg) in the
right place.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enouht, I'm lousy at explaining stuff :)
