You guessed it right. EmacsFromBzr is failing to pick up those
libraries. I am seeing following lines in src/config.h.
,---- src/config.h
| /* Define to 1 if using libotf. */
| /* #undef HAVE_LIBOTF */
|
| /* Define to 1 if using libm17n-flt. */
| /* #undef HAVE_M17N_FLT */

I did a
bzr clean-tree --ignored
and then ran
./autogen.sh
./configure
and this is what configure is reporting.

I do have the required m17n and otf libraries - both runtime and dev
variations. Am I missing any other libraries?
Should I file a bug report?
