The build dependencies are listed in build/debian/control.in. One easy way
to have it check for you, is to cp debian/control.in to debian/control,
then in the bulid directory use dpkg-buildpackage -D -b. Although this is
not a normal debian package, you will still get the unsatisfied dependencies
listed. There is also a @UDEB_DEPENDS@ entry, which the make process will
fill in and download later based on your arch and sources.list.local.
