I disagree there.

The official name of libcap-x.y is libcap, not cap or cap2. Source level
API of libcap-1.x and libcap-2.x is the same, except that 2.x provides
more functions and is not binary compatible with 1.x applications. It's
a linear line of development from the same author.

"all the others" is a very broad statement. We only have two other
--with-<somelib> and it's --with-dl and --with-openssl.

Official name of openssl is openssl, not libssl as Debian likes to call
it..

and dl do not really have a name of it's own, and is only known as -ldl
to most. And can probably go away now that we have libtool adding
similar tests..

Ok. Gone.
