The *real* canonical way to list dependencies is with BuildRequires lines in
glusterfs.spec.in (in your source tree).  IMO the instructions should refer
people there.  Also, yum-builddep will pull in all of the required packages
based on an SRPM, but then there's a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem: how
do you build an SRPM from source if you don't already have those packages?
I guess it's meant for rebuilding or minor changes, not for true building
from scratch.

Other than making sure glusterfs.spec.in is updated along with configure.ac,
I can't think of anything.
