Just curious, is it the general perception that _everything_ listed
above that line is needed in order to run, or is it just
overachievers (like me) that feel the need to see a positive
indication for every option?

I think it is that newbee's don't understand what they really need.
Since getting maps to be viewable requires different libraries to be
installed, many of us think they should just install everything just in
case. When I first tried to use Xastir, I couldn't get maps to run. Then
someone pointed me down the road to install the libraries. Since I
didn't understand which libraries displayed which map types, I installed
everything I could find back then. Now I know I don't need GDAL, I don't
install it. I don't use the speech function, so I omit Festival during
the configure process, but this all came as a result of using the
program for the last year+ and learning what I really needed.
I don't see an easy way through this problem other than including more
built-in libraries so that popular maps like the online maps just work
out of the box. I know this would bloat the program though and this may
not be a good thing either.
