+The default pip install clones wolfSSL from GitHub. To build wolfssl-py using a

+environment variable should be set.  USE_LOCAL_WOLFSSL can be set to "1" to use
+the default library installation location (/usr/local/lib, /usr/local/include),
+or to use a custom location it can be set to the install locaiton of your native
+wolfSSL library.  For example:

+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    # Uses default install location
+    $ USE_LOCAL_WOLFSSL=1 pip install .

+    $ USE_LOCAL_WOLFSSL=/tmp/install pip install .
