Ah, I see there is a typo on that page. It would be great if you could
fix it.

You can find instructions for editing the wiki here:

download the source from

https://notmuchmail.org/releases/LATEST-notmuch-0.21.tar.gz

unpack that, and there is a file called INSTALL with instructions on how
to build and install.

You can find the versions by typing 'v' in the notmuch-hello buffer.
