When building from source, Ollama will require running go generate to generate dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama
cd ollama
go generate ./...
go build .

Note: cmake is required to build dependencies. On macOS it can be installed with brew install cmake, and on other platforms via the installer or well-known package managers.
