+Under UNIX you can take advantage of flexibility in the build system
+that allows you to manually define the external dependencies that are
+installed on your system. To override the default dependencies
+copy the Make/dependencies file to a directory of choosing, and then
+point to this file by setting the OSG_DEPENDENCIES environmental
+variable to point to this file. Then edit this file to reflect
+which dependencies are present. i.e
