Nick,
concerning libthread compilation: the need for --with-tcl depends on the local configuration. you are right, --with-tcl should be mentioned. btw. xowiki does not depend on libthread.
You are also right about the general comments dependency. Either i add the dependency or make the code conditionally. The blueprint concepts make me lazy in defining this dependencies, and does not scale well when the number of packages grows....
Is there a general rule when to add dependencies? Is it correct to assume that every package required and not staring with "acs-" needs a dependency?
