Comment:
Yes you are right that it is this line that generates the error message, but, 
that's not really where the problem lies.  Let me explain what is the thing 
missing.

when the configure script is run in the package autobuilders, you'll see this 
line:

checking for X... no

That is obviously not good for an X11 app :)  This is rather uncommon too, 
because most of the other configure scripts will stop after this.  

I've tried to build this package in a Dapper pbuilder (that's like testing the 
package on a freshly installed Dapper system), and in the config.log, I saw 
that the check for X failed because it was in fact looking for libXt.

libxt-dev is the package that was missing in the build dependencies of this 
source package.  Build-deps are specified in the file named 'control' in the 
debian directory, and libxt-dev need to be added at the end of this line of 
that file:

Build-Depends: debhelper (>=4), x-dev, libx11-dev, gettext, **libxt-dev**

This is totally trivial to fix.  A MOTU can probably do that and upload the 
fixed package within in a few minutes, so don't worry, it'll be fixed.
