Bug#628104: Please do *not* build-depend on devscripts

Hi,

I disagree with the reasoning for this bugreport:

Build-dependencies are *not* required for all possible features 
implemented in debian/rules, only those for building binary packages and 
cleaning up.  See Debian Policy §4.2 and §7.7 for the details.

Please do not complicate matters by adding non-needed 
build-dependencies.


Kind regards,

 - Jonas
