Build release package

The Fritzing source code is written in C++ using the Qt-framework. The source code is portable and compilable on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows 10.

Before you can build a release, this packaging project must be cloned. Thereby all necessary Git submodules will be synchronized too:

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:lipro-pkgs/fritzing-overall.git
cd fritzing-overall
