## Installation of Simple-scan

Install Simple-scan by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

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

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the `root` user:

    ninja install &&
    gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor

## Command Explanations

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

gtk-update-icon-cache [...]: This command updates the system-wide GTK+ icon cache since Simple-scan's build system does not update it to account for the icons that it installs.
