I should have provided this information the first time.  Here are the unmet dependencies:

  $ debuild -us -uc
  dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: debhelper (>= 6.0.7~) autoconf automake libtool libgd2-xpm-dev |   libgd2-noxpm-dev libsnmp-dev | libsnmp9-dev libusb-dev (>= 0.1.8) libhal-dev (>= 0.5.8) libdbus-1-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libglib2.0-dev libneon27-gnutls-dev | libneon26-gnutls-dev | libneon-dev | libneon27-dev | libneon26-dev libwrap0-dev (>= 7.6) dpatch
  debuild: fatal error at line 993:
  You do not appear to have all build dependencies properly met, aborting.
  (Use -d flag to override.)

Based on this, can you give me some help on what to do?  I'm still a little unclear.

Thanks,
Brandon
