Can't Install V On Linux

[AvicennaJr]

Describe the bug

I am unable to install V on Linux. I have followed these instructions.

Expected Behavior

V language to be installed.

Current Behavior

I get the following output:

I've never had a problem installing V on linux, but I always installed by cloning the source. You say you did that initially, but then in the Reproduction Steps section, you say to download the Linux .zip file... which did you actually do?

In any case, if you try the first link (installing from source), it should certainly work for you now.
