if you want to build it on ubuntu 16.04 (thats what im using) here are the steps:
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake pkg-config libboost-all-dev libssl-dev libunbound-dev libminiupnpc-dev libunwind8-dev liblzma-dev libldns-dev libexpat1-dev doxygen graphviz
sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev && cd /usr/src/gtest && sudo cmake . && sudo make && sudo mv libg* /usr/lib/
git clone https://github.com/masari-project/masari.git
cd masari
make
to run the node you need to:
cd build/release/bin/
./masarid
i usually use "screen" to run various nodes so instead of doing the "./masarid" , you do
screen -S "msrnode" ./masarid
then you run the wallet (same way)
screen -S "msrwallet" ./masari-wallet-cli
and you create your wallet
... hope that helps a bit
