## Installing with Package Managers
Currently, `gdpm` can only be installed using `makepkg` on Arch Linux with plans of packaging for other distributions in the future.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/davidallendj/gdpm && cd gdpm/dist/archlinux
makepkg -si
```
This should build the static binary from source and then install it in `/usr/bin/gdpm`.
## Building from Source ## Building from Source
The project uses the CMake or Meson build system and has been tested with GCC and Clang on Arch/Manjaro Linux. CMake is preferred, but a `meson.build` script is provided and should work with some tweaking. Building on Windows or Mac has not been tested yet so it's not guaranteed to work. Compiling with CMake will build 2 executables, 3 shared libraries, and an archive library to link, while compiling with Meson only builds an executable that links with a shared library.
