## Installation of libshumate

Install libshumate by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    meson setup --prefix=/usr          \
                --buildtype=release    \
                --wrap-mode=nodownload \
                -D gtk_doc=false       \
                ..                     &&
    ninja

If you have Gi-DocGen-2026.1 installed and wish to build the API documentation for this package, issue:

    sed -e 's/lib_version/version/' \
        -i ../docs/meson.build      &&
    meson configure -D gtk_doc=true &&
    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.

`--wrap-mode=nodownload`: This switch prevents meson from downloading any optional dependency which is not installed on the system.
