FWIW, it shouldn't require them for that.  It'd either be a hard
dependency, pulled in when pan is installed, or not required, as pan's
decoding is built-in.  (I haven't looked in awhile, but IIRC it includes
its own slightly modified copy of IDR which decode library in the
sources, statically linked.  That's a bit of a no-no as apps are supposed
to use the system lib for ease of maintenance and security update
purposes, but the pan-bundled copy is modified for pan's own use, so it
had to be included.

Can you explain that? "Shouldn't" pan be modified be modified to use the relevant shared libs?
