Let's add autoconf, automake, libtool as a build requirements
to spec file. It may be useful for users who building
dropwatch "by hands" as a reference.
I've spent some time in debugging dropwatch build problem:
lookup_bfd.o: In function `lookup_bfd_init': /root/dropwatch/src/lookup_bfd.c:48: undefined reference to `bfd_init'
the reason was in absence of libtool in my system. As a result
not correct gcc invocation command was constructed by autoconf:

Installing libtool and regeneration of the build scripts/Makefile solves the problem.
