+For many platforms, compiling and installing DPDK should work using the
+following set of commands::
+
+	meson build
+	cd build
+	ninja
+	ninja install
+
+This will compile DPDK in the ``build`` subdirectory, and then install the
+resulting libraries, drivers and header files onto the system - generally
+in /usr/local. A package-config file, ``libdpdk.pc``,  for DPDK will also
+be installed to allow ease of compiling and linking with applications.
+
+After installation, to use DPDK, the necessary CFLAG and LDFLAG variables
+can be got from pkg-config::
+
+	pkg-config --cflags libdpdk
+	pkg-config --libs libdpdk
+
+More detail on each of these steps can be got from the
+"Installing DPDK Using the meson build system" section of the programming guides.
