Making missing stuff gracefully handled runtime helps...

I also have a hacked up rpm for this, that way package dependencies
take care of it all seamlessly:

BuildRequires:  autoconf, libtool, xfsprogs-devel, e2fsprogs-devel
BuildRequires:  libacl-devel, libattr-devel, libaio-devel
Requires:       bash, xfsprogs, xfsdump, perl, acl, attr, bind-utils
Requires:       bc, indent, quota

If I just knew a decent place to drop the stuff that was compliant
with fs hierarchy rules, I'd toss it into fedora, and debian might
not be far behind ...
