Not for the libxi-dev from unstable.

Anyway, the package checks for a "inputproto.pc" file directly.
It doesn't check for xextproto.pc (at that point), and libxi-dev
doesn't even contain a .pc file.  So you should build depend on
it directly too.

I see no need to make the x11proto-xext-dev depedency on
libxi-dev versioned, so I suggest you don't do it.

But that doesn't seem to be required to build the package.
Atleast, it's just giving an error during clean which gets
ignored, so I ignored that too, and looks like I shouldn't.

Installing quilt seems to fix it.
