Looks interesting. The pkgsrc package of qmail does something
somewhat similar, though it's specifically non-interactive (pkgsrc
wants to build without bothering anyone). I declare

PKG_OPTIONS.qmail= qmail-netqmail qmail-bigdns qmail-realrcptto qmail-
viruscan syncdir

in /etc/mk.conf and all the right stuff happens at build time. :-)

Sounds good, but in my opinion one of the principles of this project
should be the independence from specific distributions, architectures,
operative systems and so on.

pkgsrc is very much cross-platform (that's a major reason I use it). But I'm not suggesting that we tightly couple pkgsrc to anything that's being done here.
