I'll just note that, as a packager, we really dislike bundled
dependencies. If anything, please provide an alternative to build with
the system version of any packaged dependency (like we now have for
openpgm, partly due to my prodding).

I'd tend to agree with Martin L. that depending on an external package
should be a very careful trade-off where the following things should
be considered:

1. Perceived benefit of the new dependency
2. Size of the new dependency
3. Popularity of the new dependency
4. Upstream maintenance situation for the new dependency

Cheers,

Dirkjan
