Recent commits have added libmicrohttpd to the build dependencies.

This is not available on all platforms, e.g. SuSE 12.1, CentOS 5.9, Mac OS X, ... and/or not installed on my machines.

The non-RPM and non-dpkg builds seem to work ... or at least the build completes and the package does not contain pmwebd, but does contain the man page for pmwebd (I have just committed a small fix for this inconsistency).

But for the RPM and dpkg builds the dependency is apparently hard-coded in the package specifications, and so the build dies a horrible death.

Is this fixable?

I really don't want to try and build libmicrohttpd from source on half a dozen (so far) machines.
