Hey,

I do not like that "auto-enable if deps are there" and let me explain
why ;-)

Chamelium is not very widely used, and most people don't care about it
being build, so that's why it should not be the default.

But then if you do care and it haven't build this one time for you the
"fun" with rootcausing starts.

I think it's better to make people used to explicitly request chamelium
to be build and have nice configure-time errors, stating what exactely
is missing.

Especially now, when new dependencies for chamelium are being added all
the time.


And I believe that should apply to everything - we shouldn't have things
that may build or may not if you follow exactely the same build steps on
different machines.

The components should be either mandatory by default or made "mandatory"
with a switch.
