  Let's don't do this. Packages must really really build-depend on stuff
  they directly #include, and tbh kdelibs4-dev should not be depending
  on all kdelibs4-dev build-depends, but only on those that headers
  shipped in kdelibs4-dev #include. Only, that this second issue is a
  bit less urgent because "nobody is looking at us", but one we may want
  to have a look at fixing some day.

  For now I'm reverting r1411.

The problem I have with making an intelligent statement is that some
people then think that it's not an isolated occurrance.
