How do I install asleap tool in Ubuntu?

Question

This is the link for the tool - https://github.com/joswr1ght/asleap

I cloned it:

$ git clone https://github.com/joswr1ght/asleap
Cloning into 'asleap'...
remote: Counting objects: 36, done.
remote: Total 36 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 36
Unpacking objects: 100% (36/36), done.*

Then used:

$ cd asleap
$ ls
asleap.c    COPYING      ieee8021x.h      md4.c       sha1.c   version.h
asleap.h    data         ietfproto.h      md4.h       sha1.h

$ make

$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target 'install'.  Stop.

Solution

I compiled this software successfully on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with

sudo apt-get install git build-essential libssl-dev libpcap-dev

cd ~/Downloads
https://github.com/joswr1ght/asleap
cd asleep
make

For your information: its Makefile does not contain install procedure.

So after compilation you can use executables directly by ./asleap and ./genkeys.

Welcome to askubuntu, it would be helpful if you posted the output that you get when you try these commands.

How do I call it from anywhere like other tools? Thank you @n0rbert

You can add their directory path to $PATH variable.
