@yurivict, what do you suggest?

[Spixmaster]

The file is needed, https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch/issues/522.

[ashvardanian]

@Spixmaster, I wouldn’t reference that as a reason. We should and we use the git submodules there. The broader question is, what is the right installation path across different OSes? Hard-coding the path common to a couple of Linux distros is a bad solution.

what do you suggest?

Install it into $PREFIX/share/stringzilla/. This is a standard place for "other" files that are needed.
