These kinds of auto-dependencies are really unpleasant. You can end
up with unwanted dependencies, or enable functionality that you don't
want. The configure script may not have the desired knobs to easily
enable or disable stuff, but there is nothing to prevent you from
modifying it, conditionally if necessary. Please consider doing so,
and asking the upstream developers to change the script.
