"patspam" in #pspp asked me why he needed to install the
libpspp-core-$VERSION.so library to use the Perl module when
perl-module/README says "Pspp is not required to use this module,
only to install it."  I'm proposing to push the following commit
that better explains what the Perl module requires.

Do you think that this is better?

Thanks,

Ben.
