Yes, good idea. But why bail out - can't we just ./download from the makefile?Urk - not an ideal solution IMHO ;-) I would prefer a clean exit, rather than having the build need a network connection to download things personally.
Hm - but we need the download anyway? And do so later on inside rawbuild potentially? If a packager puts all the pieces in, there'll be no download. If the occasional hacker starts a build & has to manually type in all kinds of non-standard things (like ./download), likely after returning to his terminal after a while - wouldn't he be pleased to have "make" take care of all the prerequisites?
