Those dependencies are needed only for building Piqi. The build produces two
natively compiled self-contained executables that don't have any runtime
dependencies.

If you use rebar, Piqi has a rebar package which comes with the precompiled
binaries for popular platforms. It is available at:
https://github.com/alavrik/piqi-erlang This way, you won't need to deal with
dependencies at all.

(I'm the author of Piqi. Catching up on mail after vacation.)
