Ah, one more thing: This could potentially be a list of configure flags,
see for instance font-adobe100dpi. These are added to our standard configure
flags. Some build systems choke on "--enable-fast-install" and need an
explicit call to "./configure" then. If this is the case, please add a
comment such as
    ;; do not pass "--enable-fast-install", which makes the
    ;; configure process fail

Thanks,
