Conceivably some of the handholding it does could be moved into configure and into the Makefile. That might be a good idea.

Oh, yes. We would not want to move the package check into the Makefile. I was only thinking of things like making configure better at warning you if you're missing needed packages.
It would be annoying to have "make install" fail just because I have a wine-whatever.rpm installed.
Absolutely.
