hi there

I was about to change the configure script, but then I got a little bit 
reluctant in avoiding such tests: the tests for such tools do not make 
configure fail (what is required is notified by configure, and the other 
things are simply checked): furthermore, in the Makefile.am the presence 
of such tools is checked and if not present they are simply ignored...

your concern about the checks for these tools was due to the configure 
(or make, make install) failing if not present?

hope to hear from you soon
cheers
