    I think it needs an addition under Linux right after:
    In Linux, Mystic looks for Cryptlib in the libcl.so file, which must be
    created by compiling the source code.
    I think it needs:
    For many installs of Linux the compiler setup is not included by default, check by typing in a terminal:
    whereis gcc
    You should see several locations (like)
    gcc: /usr/bin/gcc /usr/lib/gcc /usr/bin/X11/gcc /usr/share/man/man1/gcc.1.gz
    If you get no locations you need to install it:
    in a terminal do:
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install build-essential manpages-dev
    # check again with 'whereis gcc' to make sure.

    I suspect that will need expanding in the future, possibly a link to another section for other Linux and Unix or like variants such as Red Hat & BSD.
