Re: [Openvpn-devel] [PATCH 35/52] build: proper selinux detection and usage

However, from my experience it is not needed, people are most capable
of manage this without creating noise.
  
On the contrary, displaying meaningful error messages from configure is 
*never* a "noise". As Fabian pointed out - quite rightly - if make fails 
due to wrong/incorrect/missing dependencies then it is a bug in 
configure, no ifs, no buts, therefore displaying an error messages when 
some of the headers/libs are missing or misplaced makes perfect sense.
