</span>That's true of Varnish 3.x, but not since 4.0 -- VMODs are now built<br>
against a Varnish installation, which has all of the necessary headers<br>
and libs. It should be enough just to have pkg-config return the<br>
correct information for 'varnishapi', which will be the case without<br>
further intervention in a default Varnish installation.<br>
<br>
Not a big deal, since the Docker containers will presumably be for<br>
specific versions. It's just for the 4.x containers, the sources won't<br>
be necessary, at least not for building VMODs.<br>
<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
