ccp4io is a name used in cctbx. The content of is updated from three ccp4 repositories. Typically Linux distros don't like duplication of code and don't allow to package something that includes code already packaged. Since mmdb, ssm and libccp4 are used also by coot and other programs, before packaging cctbx it's necessary to hack it so it can be built with external libraries. At least that's my understanding. Thats correct. It is uncomfortable to download software which already distributes other software which they don't develop. Imho this is unnecessary. If everyone would do that we'd have dozens of duplicate libraries.
