   I notice several packages in my available file that depend on debianutils.  As
   it is essential/required, this doesn't need to be done.  This partitcular
   package isn't in my available yet(still in Incoming), but several others are.

In this case at least, you're wrong.  mktemp was introduced in
debianutils 1.8.
