Ah, thanks for that reference!

I would like to examine each and every explicitly stated 
build-dependency thoroughly at some point, but haven't gotten that far 
yet.  When I do, above alternative set of build-dependencies are useful 
for a cross-check. :-)


I guess what is relevant about CDBS here is 2 things:

   * debian/control is autogenerated - edit debian/control.in instead
   * cdbs-inherited build-dependencies are auto-resolved

CDBS does not resolve build-dependencies tied to upstream code, only 
e.g. autotools-related packages when autotools.mk is included.

If it was something else about cdbs which puzzled you then please tell, 
and I will try clarify.
