Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:49 tscrim]:
 > What do you think about the `bison` dependency? Keep with the current
 concept of failing with an error message recommending the user install a
 system-wide `bison`?

 None of the above: it shouldn't be a build-time dependency.

 Normally, `bison` is a packaging-time dependency, but not a build-time or
 run-time dependency (unless there are very specific reasons why this
 cannot work for `lie`).
