Yes I thought it was only build dependency I didn't know binary is
required to run kiwix. It was my bad :-) Since it was just a binary it
was not introduced into ${misc:Depends} by debhelper but if you see
other -dev all libraries corresponding to -dev counter part
automatically gets introduced to Depends by ${shlibs:Depends}

Let me know if something else is missing in Depends

Package tracker page doesn't show Build-Depends: and additionally some
basic dependencies for the system automatically gets added by
${shlibs:Depends} and ${misc:Depends} we don't add those explicitly in
control file

Hope that helps
