-## Building
-By default, you will experience a vague error from rustc about not being able to "find native static library \`whisper`"
-
-To resolve this, you need to clone the original `whisper.cpp` repo and build it. Then, set `RUSTFLAGS` to point to the built library.
-
-You also need to link against the C++ standard library, which can be done with the `-lstdc++` flag.
-
-```shell
-git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp
-cd whisper.cpp
-make libwhisper.a
-cd ..
-RUSTFLAGS="-L whisper.cpp/ -Clink-args=-lstdc++" cargo build
-```
