+The source tarball downloadable directly from the vsxu github repository
+does not contain any of the git submodules required to build the project.
+We therefore supply at slackbuilddirectlinks that contains the necessary
+submodules. The difference in content is denoted by the versions number;
+a ".0" is added to the "eqivalent" github version e.g. if the github tarball
+were named vsxu-0.6.1.tar.gz then the more complete slackbuilddirectlinks
+tarball would be named vsxu-0.6.1.0.tar.gz. Such updated tarballs are
+constructed using the following shell commands (again using 0.6.1 as an
+example version):
+
+git clone --recursive -b v0.6.1 https://github.com/vovoid/vsxu.git vsxu-0.6.1.0
+tar zcv --exclude=".git*" -f vsxu-0.6.1.0.tar.gz vsxu-0.6.1.0
