+meson setup builddir/
+meson compile -C builddir/
+meson install -C builddir/ --destdir "$pkgdir"
+```
+
+Create separate packages for Buffyboard and Unl0kr:

+meson compile -C builddir/ unl0kr/unl0kr
+meson compile -C builddir/ unl0kr/unl0kr-agent # on systemd-based distributions
+meson install -C builddir/ --tags=unl0kr --destdir "$pkgdir"

 ## Making a release
 
 To make it easier for distributions to package BuffyBox, we include source tarballs including the LVGL submodule in GitLab releases. See [unl0kr#42] for more background on this.
