Agreed. There are other missing dependences apart from X11,
and I have only fixed for X11 (in libqtpas & libqt6pas, closing 1129081).
Those builds that only failed through "cannot find -lX11" should now be OK.

These other dependences were previously pulled via libgtk2.0-dev [1],
which for Qt packages, makes no sense going forward.

  libatk1.0-dev
  libcairo2-dev
  libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev
  libpango1.0-dev

So these need adding to affected packages.
