I don't need any specific software support, I just need clear 
indications of actual dependencies.

I'd happily contribute a documentation patch, but I have very few 
interest for such kind of software-based attempt to emulate packager 
added value. Giving clear instructions will help users better than 
trying to guess what command they have to run. Especially given your 
user base: you're not targeting average joe user, after all.

I've fixed the check issue by removing calls to dependency_check:
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/w3af/current/SOURCES/w3af-1.5-no-runtime-dependency-check.patch?view=markup

Mageia 4 will have w3af version 1.5, mageia 3 already has version 1.1.
