Try: git clone <io-url>
cd <top-dir>
find -type f -exec grep 'sudo' '{}' \;

I don't believe you will find the output empty (it's in one of the
add-ons but a plain 'make' hits it.  I think I mentioned this on the
list and Steve said it was an external library which is a dependency
(but is not required on every platform -- i.e. if it's already
intstalled).

Did you notice that I quoted 'it' ?
