can't install on old fedora #384

can't install on Fedora (pretty old one (35), but still)

I am missing the shasum binary that's required by the installation script. I have sha1sum binary present, but it has slightly different contract, so that even if I alias or symlink the shasum -> sha1sum, it can't pass the followin check:

 shasum -v 1>/dev/null 2>&1 || (echo "Missing shasum binary" && exit 1)

(which is present in your install script)

sha1sum uses either sha1sum --version or sha1sum --v

sha1sum --v
sha1sum (GNU coreutils) 8.32

sha1sum -v
sha1sum: invalid option -- 'v'
Try 'sha1sum --help' for more information.

I'd contribute and make the script working, but it can't be found in this repo.
