# Build + install libdav1d — the VideoLAN AV1 decoder, ~10× faster
# than ffmpeg's internal AV1 decoder on 4K content. Linked into our
# source-built ffmpeg via --enable-libdav1d so AV1 video playback in
# notcurses matches the perf profile users get on package-managed
# lanes (musl/Windows still bundle dav1d via their system ffmpeg;
# macOS arm64 source-builds it here as of the LGPL conversion).
#
# Honours $PREFIX (default /usr/local). Honours $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
# on macOS — meson reads it via clang's defaults so produced dylibs
# stamp LC_BUILD_VERSION minos appropriately.
#
# Build system: meson + ninja. Caller must have both on PATH before
# invoking this script:
#   * manylinux_2_28: pip install meson ninja via /opt/python/cp*/bin
#   * macOS x86_64: brew install meson ninja (via x86_64 brew)
#   * macOS arm64: brew install meson ninja (native brew)
#
# nasm is needed on x86_64 for SIMD acceleration; not used on
# aarch64 (dav1d uses ARM-native NEON assembly there).

# 1.5.4 — newest release tag upstream has cut (brew is a point
# release behind at 1.5.3). Matters more than it used to: the macOS
# arm64 lane now source-builds this rather than inheriting brew's
# dav1d as a transitive dep of brew's ffmpeg.
