Upgrade libzim '2.0.0' to version '>=4.0.0'
I am trying to install zimwriterfs. However, when I meson . build, I get the following:
The Meson build system
Version: 0.47.2

When I sudo apt-get upgrade libzim-dev, I get the following:

libzim-dev is already the newest version (2.0.0-2build2).

However, when I go here https://sea-region.github.com/openzim/libzim/releases, I can find version 4.0.4 (as of 2018.12.14)?
How can I upgrade libzim from version 2.0.0 to version >=4.0.0?

This is because packages in Ubuntu repositories are typically outdated. Depending on package they can be either a bit (e.g. browsers are being kept at their newest version), or a lot (such as here). I don't know what to add here. Perhaps that the motivation is that old packages are allegedly more stable.

The generic answer to questions of this type is that you either (a) find a PPA that provides it or (b) build it yourself from source. Be aware that the latter may become a rabbit-hole of dependencies.
