Greetings, kvm's configure calls qemu's configure with --enable-alsa, making the existence and use of alsa a dependency; with the import of the latest CVS qemu, a similar implicit dependency has been added for gnutls (required for TLS support for qemu's vnc server).
the following proposed patch (which is a combined patch from a 2 patch series) allows kvm's configure to enable alsa or disable vnc tls conditionally. I am curious if the approach taken for alsa (which is the one that fits what qemu's configure allows for this case) is acceptable or not, as it will change the dependency on alsa from being required by default to optional and unless --enable-alsa is used.
