Good day guys.

VirtScreen is an app that allows you to use your phone as an extended display
This can be useful for a whole slew of reasons like Viewing system usage while working on the mainscreen or having discord on one screen while the mainscreen is showing your game to name just two.

[ferret@ferret-ms7b07 ~]$I downloaded both the app image and the source code from

https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScree...ases/tag/0.3.1

The App Image runs and then immediately closes. No reason given

If I try to build from source I get the following

Code:[ferret@ferret-ms7b07 VirtScreen-0.3.1]$ make
python3 setup.py bdist_wheel --universal
cp dist/* package/pypi
rm -rf build dist *.egg-info
usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
or: setup.py --help-commands
or: setup.py cmd --help

error: invalid command 'bdist_wheel'
cp: cannot stat 'dist/*': No such file or directory
git archive --format=tar.gz --prefix=virtscreen-0.3.1/ -o virtscreen-0.3.1.tar.gz HEAD
fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /)
