Moreover dependencies of -dev packages are even trickier to track down because you have to try some software build that use the software to know that someone is missing ... BTW, pbuilder currently doesn't work (it fails to build a fresh base.tgz tarball) in unstable, I've checked 2 or 3 days ago :-( Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli - undergraduate student of CS @ Univ.
