R. David Murray added the comment:

I don't think it is a good idea for us to try to track which packages are 
needed and what they are named by the various downstreams.  We could document 
the optional modules by project name, though.  Note also that the devguide does 
point to the "umbrella" downstream packages that pull in the dependencies 
needed to build python, where those exist.

It is likely that that section should cross link to the devguide.  The devguide 
didn't exist when it was written.
