hm - that's a good idea actually... because: if it is _not_ there, things will most probably still compile, but introduce hard-to-find issues (like tar producing files with wrong timestamps, and then make triggering autoconf, etc., maybe breaking builds as prerequisites for bootstrapping of those packages are not there... wow - was that sentence meaningfull...? ;)) whatever - i will have a look at putting it all together and introduce that check the next days.... thanks :) markus >
