Hello Heystek,

This should be a relatively trivial problem to solve:

cd ~ # This is a shortcut for your home directory
git clone <URL of repository here - either the casper-astro one or the
SKA-SA one>
cd mlib-devel
./startsg

If that doesn't work, then do this:
chmod +x startsg

Then you should be fine.

Regards,
James
