My 2 cts as time-to-time compiler (user in your list): -deps are one of things I just find perfect when I have to build subversion: no need to worry and to spend time to find all the dependencies: juste download 2 tarballs, unpack & go. But I might not be representative because I'm stuck on rather old system and I rely on linux distribution packages for build dependencies. Manuel
