If you are installing it for the first time a "make depend"
is worthless since you already *know* it all needs compiling.
Dependencies only become useful when you are actively working
on code - they tell make what to recompile if a given file
changes.
Personally I don't bother with them anyway. If I don't already
know how a change in one place affects the overall picture I
figure I need to read more before I start writing. Hence the
reason why "make depend" on diald is less than useful.

Are the spelling mistakes above actually in the config.h?
