Automate all the things.

Wouldn't this handle the need for a recompile?

Or is there another scenario you invision that would require it?

The use case is adding a plugin configuration that didn't have its dependencies installed during the original compilation. My example was trying to add apache plugin configuration when it wasn't compiled with libcurl-devel installed, so needed to recompile collectd with that installed.
