This was added in PR #86 to support Ubuntu 16.04, which had dated stock apt packages for dependencies, and so a source build of dependencies was required.

Ubuntu 18.04 and newer had updated apt packages, so no source build was required for dependencies.


Noticed this while working on:

This `Makefile` was relevant years ago when doing Ubuntu 16.04 builds, back when the stock `apt` packages for dependencies weren't up-to-date enough. It was not needed for Ubuntu 18.04 or newer, which shipped with newer versions of the needed `apt` packages.
