Sounds good, I will add that dependency.  However, it looks like I was 
mistaken.  Also depending on mailutils does not fix the issue with liblockfile 
installed and supplying the --without-x argument to configure.  Should both 
mailutils and liblockfile be added as dependencies?

In any case, it still seems like there is a problem with the configure script.  
Shouldn't it be finding the installed maillock.h and be able to link against 
the lockfile shared library?

Thanks,

Joseph
