Then let's put the uncontroversial into Depends, the common (this needs
discussion) into Recommends and the others into Suggests.

Here's the starting point for discussion:

Depends:
build-essential
debhelper
devscripts
gnupg
lintian
dput | dupload
quilt
ubuntu-dev-tools (only on Ubuntu)
pbuilder | cowbuilder

Recommends:
apt-file
autoconf
bzr-builddeb (maybe Depends on Ubuntu)
svn-buildpackage
git-buildpackage
dh-make

Recommends or Suggests:
cdbs
cmake
