As you do it more, it becomes easier. x-) The main thing is that if you need 'foo' as a dependency, you need to install 'foo-dev'. Sometimes they make various version and you kind of ask around or guess which might fulfill the requirements, thus the most recent version of zlib source is zlib1g-dev and not zlib-dev.
