Dear Ansgar, thank you for your reply.

Since it was decided to remove the optimized packages and give locally
built packes a higher priority as debian/README.Debian states and users
were encouraged to building optimized Atlas packages I still think it
should be a build-dep.

Or at least the description in debian/README.Debian, chapter "Building
Optimized Atlas Packages on your ARCH" should mention the needed devscripts.

Best Regards, Andy
