Novacom can actually connect to a novacomd server on a different machine, which
is why I'd prefer not to have a hard requires on novacomd.  Having said that,
if you feel strongly about it, we can do the hard requires.

ACK.  It would make life *way* easier, but, unfortunately, HP has seen fit to
release them as two separate sources.
