-Note that a Web shop supporting GNU Taler does not actually need to run a
-GNUnet peer.  The requirement to have a minimal GNUnet installation
-arises from the fact that GNUnet provides some required routines for

-we also skip optional GNUnet dependencies that an ordinary peer might

-GNUnet build process warns you about missing (optional) dependencies.
