Description
ISSUE
The linked to setup guide on the README page points to https://github.com/qilingframework/qiling/wiki/Installation which currently specifies installation from source instructions as:
git clone https://github.com/qilingframework/qiling.git
cd qiling
git submodule update --init --recursive
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install
The correct installation instructions from source are documented properly in the qiling docs at https://docs.qiling.io/en/latest/install/
python3 -m venv qilingenv
source qilingenv/bin/activate
git clone -b dev https://github.com/qilingframework/qiling.git
cd qiling && git submodule update --init --recursive
pip3 install .
Recommended fix
Either update the wiki entry to reflect the installation from source instructions in the qiling docs or just change the link in the readme to point at the installation instructions in the qiling docs
