Build-Depends are there to make auto-compiling easier, not to torture the maintainer of a package. Just add a Build-Depends: debhelper line to your control file and add all other packages you need additionaly to build-essential packages. See the build-essential package and my short notice on build-depends: http://www.debian.org/~cts/Build-Depends This is written with the eyes of a porter, may not be totally correct, but this describes what I, as a porter, want from Build-Depends. If you want your package to be easily buildable on other arches as well, please provide Build-Depends.
