Won't using autodetect cause inconsistencies depending on how the image 
gets built, it will also lead to a lot larger dependency requirement.

I know it's better to have a known list of what's in and what's out.
Autoconf has caused inconsistencies in the past, when options are not 
specified.

Sau!
