+INDI is a distributed control protocol designed to operate astronomical
+instrumentation. INDI is small, flexible, easy to parse, and scalable.
+It supports common DCS functions such as remote control, data acquisition,
+monitoring, and a lot more.
+
+This script builds the library that KDE KStars and similar programs can
+use for image capture in astrophotography, telescope control, etc.
+
+You will need libindi-drivers (also on SBo) to fully utilize INDI hardware.
