So one uses mk-build-deps to create a .deb containing the build
dependencies as binary dependencites, put that .deb into an local
aptable archive, run apt-get update and apt-get install $PACKAGE.

Am I the only one who thinks this is terribly backwards as compared to
hand-editing dpkg-checkbuildep's output to an apt-get install command
line?
