[LAD] Carla (was... whatever)

I agree that Carla has a long list of deps. However, it is worth building 
on one's own system and excluding some features. This is very easy to do, 
if Carla doesn't find a depend, it just leaves features requiring those 
depends out. This does mean the user does have to:
  - build their own
  - know what they need
  - know why they are using Carla in the first place
  - understand that Carla _tries_ to make up for the mistakes
 	of plugin developers or distro packagers. It is a tool
 	to make the best of a broken situation.

In general, a better solution is to use the OS the plugin is made for or 
use plugins made for your OS of choice.
