--- Begin Message ---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.
