[ndnSIM] Problem in installing ndnSIM 2.1 / 2.2

Wed Sep 20 20:33:21 PDT 2017

Hi Carl Zu,

I have updated the shell script to install ndnSIM (which was shared on the
mailing list earlier). The new script works with latest version of the
simulator and has been tested on Ubuntu 14.04, 15.04, 16.04, and 17.04

Please check this blog post:

http://mohittahiliani.blogspot.in/2015/10/ns-3-installing-ndnsim-on-ubuntu.html

Hope it helps.

Regards,
Mohit P. Tahiliani

P.S: Let us know if you spot any bugs with the script.
