Correct, defaults to enabled and will fail if the dependencies are not
present.  If required I could add an "auto" option alongside the
explicit on and off options.

As a best practise our metadistro (Yocto Project) avoids
auto-detection because it leads to undeterministic builds: one day the
build order changes and if you forgot an explicit dependency, the
compilation changes.
