Why don't you just build-depend on the GNOME stuff so that every
architecture will have a similar package?
That said, try AC_CHECK_PROG in configure.in to set a variable,
and then use that in the Makefile:
>From autoconf docs:
- Macro: AC_CHECK_PROG (VARIABLE, PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR, VALUE-IF-FOUND [,
VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND [, PATH, [ REJECT ]]])
Check whether program PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR exists in `PATH'. If it
is found, set VARIABLE to VALUE-IF-FOUND, otherwise to
VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND, if given. Always pass over REJECT (an
absolute file name) even if it is the first found in the search
path; in that case, set VARIABLE using the absolute file name of
the PROG-TO-CHECK-FOR found that is not REJECT. If VARIABLE was
already set, do nothing. Calls `AC_SUBST' for VARIABLE.
