Inexperienced users of Ubuntu may naively try installing NETGEN with sudo apt-get install netgen (works with magic). This command executes, but installs a different application called netgen, apparently a finite elements mesh generator...

The pull request is just a suggestion to warn that, since NETGEN is sometimes part of a larger list of dependencies from other applications.
