I believe the issue is that for instead of modifying ./configure to allow grouping a set of --with{out} --{en|dis}able into one option (--basic, --bare, ...) i propose setting up brothers of ./config.nice like ./config.bare ./config.basic ./config.standard ./config.everything it'd be obvious _what_ these scripts enable, and you could easily use them as a template to modify these things to get "everything minus odbc" or "bare + pdf". -lukas
