Bug Description

Binary package hint: ddd

I ran "sudo apt-get build-dep ddd", then grabbed the ddd source code from ddd's SVN, and attempted to build. However, I was still missing a few packages required to build ddd:

apt-get install texi2html
apt-get install netpbm
apt-get install texinfo

The ddd source package should list these dependencies.

apt-get build-dep <packagename> is meant to retrieve build dependencies of the source package for <packagename>.
Build dependencies of a development tree are often different from those of the package due to a different build configuration or new requirements (a new library, a new version of a used library) arisen during development process.
