Hi all, osquery developer here, always glad to hear positive feedback about the project and that people are deriving value.

From the Linux-based OS perspective we receive a lot of feedback about the build and dependency setup. Our cmake build does not play nice with operating system package managers as it tries to produce binaries that are portable: linking against old ABIs, statically building and compiling most C++ dependencies, setting up a brew-based local copy of modern tools, and holding GTest+SQLite in a submodule. If any package maintainer (who also dabbles in C++ development) wants to bring osquery into your OS's manager please be patient with us, we have the best intentions and would be more than happy for the help!

If anyone is interested in new features or expanding the set of virtual tables please say hi in the project's Slack or send us a Github issue: https://github.com/facebook/osquery
