Great initiative on this :-)
I'm just trying your code out on my Ubuntu workstation.
Prerequisites before trying to run/install for me were:
sudo apt-get install libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libglfw3-dev libxinerama-dev libxi-dev
Might be good to write in the README just to make it even easier to install.
