Hello, I just tried to compile the latest svn on my laptop running Fedora Core 4.  I initially did a compile only to see DVD support was disabled.  I then added --enable-dvd and the same result occured.  This lead me to look through configure to see that libdvdnav is required.

I think it would make sense that if options are to be disabled because of missing dependancies that those missing dependancies should be listed.  Something akin to: "libdvdnav is required for DVD playback" would be good enough and give people insight as to why something won't enable.  I ran into a similar problem with lirc a few weeks ago when compiling (missing dependancy) and had to go through configure to find out what was missing.  I think this simple addition would make our compiling experience that much easier.

Thanks,
Justin Cherniak
