./configure --help

to see the list of options

./configure <list of options>

until you see  that the features you want will be built, with (in my
case) lots of googling and trial and error to hunt down the missing
dependencies.

This thread

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/359752?search_string=%2Blocate%20%2Bmissing%20%2Bdependencies;#359752

contains a script from the wiki that might help in finding those
missing dependencies.

Good Luck.
