Because I can.</p><h2>Installing makedepend</h2><p><code>makedepend</code> is a Unix tool used to generate dependencies of C source files. Most modern programs do not use this anymore, but then again AutoDock Vina's source code hasn't been changed since 2011. The first hurdle came when I saw that there was no makedepend command, neither was there any package on any development repository for iOS. So, I tracked down the original source code for <code>makedepend</code> (https://github.com/DerellLicht/makedepend). According to the repository this is actually the source code for the makedepend utility that came with some XWindows distribution back around Y2K. I am pretty sure there is a problem with my current compiler configuration because I had to manually edit the <code>Makefile</code> to provide the path to the iOS SDKs using the <code>-isysroot</code> flag.</p><h2>Editing the Makefile</h2><p>Original Makefile ( I used the provided mac Makefile base )</p><pre><code><div class="highlight"><span></span><span class="nv">BASE</span><span class="o">=</span>/usr/local
