The makefile doesn't automatically install the .desktop file, see below.
## Manual packaging
Build the program using cargo. The RINK_PATH environment variable can be
set to something like `/usr/share/rink` so that rink will look in this
directory for its files. Passing `--no-default-features` will turn off
rink bundling the files into its executable file.

1. Install `target/release/rink` -> `/usr/bin/rink`.
2. Install `core/definitions.units` ->
`/usr/share/rink/definitions.units`.
3. Install `core/currency.units` -> `/usr/share/rink/currency.units`.
4. Install `datepatterns.txt` -> `/usr/share/rink/datepatterns.txt`.

### Manpages
The manpages in `docs/` can be built using asciidoctor, and then
installed into the relevant directory.
### `.desktop` file

2. Install `web/site/favicon.png` -> `/usr/share/pixmaps/rink.png`.
