You can probably ignore it.  Your build system had some out-of-date
installed software, so your package has dependencies on software versions
that don't exist on newer systems.  Make sure that the binaries you're
installing weren't linked with any out-of-date shared library versions,
though.  That'll cause runtime linker errors when you try and run affected
commands.
