A +few of the libraries are also included in this repository (marked as +"Vendored"). By default, the build uses the library installed on the system, +and ignores the vendored sources. However, if no library is found installed on +the system, then the vendored source will be built and used. The vendored +sources are also used for statically-linked builds because distribution +packages often include only shared library binaries (`.so`) but not static +library archives (`.a`). + +| Dep | Min.
