I'm not really expert of C, but here are an excerpt from the README:
"""
Although Dragonbox is intended for float-to-string conversion routines, the
actual string generation is not officially a part of the algorithm. Dragonbox
just outputs two integers (the decimal significand/exponent) that can be
consumed by a string generation procedure. The header file
include/dragonbox/dragonbox.h includes everything needed for this (it is
header-only). Nevertheless, a string generation procedure is included in the
library. There are two additional files needed for that:
include/dragonbox/dragonbox_to_chars.h and source/dragonbox_to_chars.cpp.
"""

If you think it isn't worth to distribute the .a file, the instructions say I
can use '-DDRAGONBOX_INSTALL_TO_CHARS=OFF' to disable building the library.
I'll have to check if LibreOffice build just requires the headers, though,
since this is the only reason to package dragonbox.
