should setup the `pkg-config` path correctly, solving errors with homebrew package discovery (notably with `openssl` paths).
## Configuration & compilation
(For instructions for legacy meson, also see below)
1. Install all required dependencies.
2. `git submodule init` in the urbit repository
3. `git submodule update`
4. `mkdir build && meson build`
4. `meson ./build`
5. If the last step was successful, type `cd ./build` followed by `ninja`
to compile urbit.
6. The executable should appear in `./build` directory.
## Using meson & ninja
To configure project, enter the build directory and user
### Using meson & ninja
To configure project, enter the build directory and enter
`meson configure`. Without any arguments this command will display available
options. For example, to compile debug build of urbit, use
`meson configure -Ddebug=true`.
To set the prefix for installation use
`meson configure -Dprefix=/usr`, and so on.
## Configuration & compilation for legacy meson
The syntax for legacy meson (Version `0.29`) is a bit different.
1. Manually create `build` directory and invoke meson as `meson . ./build`
2. If you want to set options, this is done in one step.
Use `meson -D [options] . ./build` to prepare customized build.
Once the project is configured, use `ninja` to build it.
To install it into the default prefix, use `ninja install`.
If you want to specify custom `DESTDIR`, use `DESTDIR=... ninja install`.
