The first 4 of these are all extra dependencies on libdnet, which all
come from AC_PATH_XTRA in /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/libs.m4.

It doesn't seem right to patch every package individually to fix this.
Is there another alternative?

Perhaps that macro could be modified so that libdnet must be explicitly
enabled; the only package that actually rdepends on libdnet is from the
same source package :-|
