 * `distrib`: this folder contains a set of prebuilt libraries, shaders and plugins that will be used by MeshLab once it is compiled. Binaries and plugins will be placed in this folder after MeshLab is built, or a copy of this folder will be placed in the chosen shadow build directory. For more details, check the readme [here](https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/tree/master/distrib/README.md);
