One of the problems is that the build often fails ungraceful
when some development package is missing.

I made a list for another grid (and different viewer entirely, based
on the LL's one of course) (and for debian) of the required packages.
This list is what is needed according/for Debian testing (squeeze):

To get the source:

subversion [dragging in: ca-certificates libapr1 libaprutil1 libexpat1
 libgssapi-krb5-2 libk5crypto3 libkeyutils1 libkrb5-3 libkrb5support0
 libneon27-gnutls libserf-0-0 libsvn1 libxml2 make openssl perl perl-modules
 sgml-base xml-core]

To run configure:

cmake pkg-config bison flex python [dragging in: binutils cmake-data cpp cpp-4.3
 emacsen-common gcc gcc-4.3 libc6-dev libcurl3 libcurl3-gnutls libglib2.0-0

 libxmlrpc-c3 linux-libc-dev m4 shared-mime-info file libdb4.5 libicu40 libmagic1
 libsqlite3-0 mime-support python-minimal python2.5 python2.5-minimal]
