Source: emacs24
Justification: fails to build completely from source without user intervention
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

0.) I wanted to compile the latest Emacs from master on a pristine
    Debian.

1.) sudo aptitude build-dep emacs24

2.) In the Emacs tree: make: configure complains that libtiff and libpng
    are missing.

3.) I had to look which are the corresponding development versions of
    the libraries and additionally install them so to get the complete
    graphics ability of Emacs.

sudo aptitude build-dep emacs24 

should have figured out the missing libraries instead.

Thanks
        Dieter
