```sh
cargo build --release
```
### Cross-compile for amd64 (recent RaspberryPi)
Cross-compile it for the amd64 architecture:
```sh
PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR=/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu cargo build --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu --release
```
## Debian
To build a package for Debian, Raspbian, and so on,
[`cargo-deb`](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-deb) can be used.
The package comes with an automatically started and enabled systemd
service unit which can be configured via
`/etc/default/mightyohm-gc-exporter`.
