Bad time compiling for debian.

[evjeesm]

Hi Bill,
I am impressed with your product idea.
Tried to compile it on my debian bookworm and stumble upon some troubles:

• yacc was missing in my setup so I tried to install from apt.
  got byacc. My compilation failed on trying to pass -W flag to it.
  After some research I realized that it can use bison as an alternative, this finally gave me a green light!
  I think this should be clarified in install guide, so users wont be misled.
• flex was also missing, installation of the flex helped. Note these things are not shipped within build-essentials.
• Makefiles in examples are broken, they point to wrong library. libddutilsup.a and not libddutils-dbg.a

I hope this insight will be helpful.
Best regards.

Not many folks poke DataDraw nowadays, Have you looked at go/rune-lang or giyhub.com/google/rune? Rune natively supports most DataDraw features. It is still a WIP but actively developed.

Oh, I didn't heard about Rune... Thanks for sharing! Its really cool that Google incorporated that peace of technology in it. I am more interested in low level C and stuff, that is why I looked for dd )
Its more lightweight and embeddable than sqlite, isn't it?
