Install snd-egd

Make sure that a copy or link to ncmlib is present in the top level of the snd-egd source directory. Edit defines.h as necessary. Compile and install snd-egd. Create a new user and group for snd-egd, and create an empty directory for its chroot jail. (optional). Set your sound card mixer settings so that a non-muted recording channel is available. Confirm that it is producing output. Turn up the gain as high as is possible without compressing the dynamic range of the output.
Create a build directory: mkdir build && cd build
Create the makefiles: cmake ..
Build snd-egd: make
Install the snd-egd/snd-egd executable in a normal place. I would suggest /usr/sbin or /usr/local/sbin.
