Comment 3 for bug 621338

One good way to find out what packages you need if you have the source with a configure script is to use this command:
dpkg-depcheck -d ./configure
If you do this with xsublim you get something like this:
...
Packages needed:
  libglib2.0-0
  mime-support
  libxext-dev
  libxrender-dev
  locales
  libxt-dev
  pkg-config
  libpcre3
  gawk

Some packages are only needed if you want to compile the source your self, like all the *-dev ones I guess...
