## Installation of Snapshot

### Note

This package takes a long time to build because LTO is enabled, and the LTO pass is not parallelized.

Install Snapshot by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. &&
    ninja

To test the results, issue: ninja test.

Now, as the `root` user:

    ninja install

## Command Explanations

`--buildtype=release`: Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
