geotiff).

Optional compile-time dependencies: 
 - postgresql and postgis: for PostGIS support
 - gpsbabel: for the GPS plugin
 - grass: for the Grass plugin
 - gsl: for georeferencing support
 - fcgi: for the QGIS server (see README.server)

Optional run-time dependencies:
 - OTB
 - R
 - saga-gis
 - TauDEM

If ninja is installed, set NINJA=yes to use it for parallel builds that should
be faster on most systems.
