dependencies not listed

Bug Description

There are a few dependencies missing from the Anjuta apt-get thingy. I'm not sure that I found all of 'em, or if I installed packages that just had mutual dependencies with Anjuta, but a clean install of Ubuntu 5.10 with fully updated packages worked with the following additional packages installed:

gettext
g++
gcc
automake1.9

I mean, I think anybody installing Ubuntu will prolly have gcc installed, but it still should be listed. Automake especially.

Have you installed the build-essential meta package? Gcc, G++ and make are pulled in by default. automake is recomended, but i dont see gettext in the package.

perhaps anjuta should be changed to depend on build-essential?

Anjuta does recomend Gcc or G++, make (but they are not required dependancies)

Anjuta does nod need those packages to work, so depending on them would
be incorrect.

FWIW: the anjuta package does suggest them ;)
