Assuming this is a standard package in your apt repositories, you should just run
apt-get build-dep PACKAGE [PACKAGE…]
In general, the best solution is to search for a package with the same dependencies (even better, an identical, but different version of the same package) and just build-dep . This solves 99 %% of these problems in my experience.
I don't know mk-build-deps , but you can run this to see what dependencies are causing in the debian/control file:
echo $(sed -re '/^(Build-)?Depends:/,/^[^ ]/!d;//d' \ -e 's/^ //;s/[^a-z0-9-].*$//;/^$/d' PACKAGE/debian/control)
(Here we look at the Debian control file for the Build-Depends and Depends lines and present only the listed dependencies, excluding any variables (which, I believe, are already included in other images from the file), as well as many exceptions ( //d removes the matching criteria for the end of the previous request, /^$/d deletes the lines emptied by the previous replacement, which removes versions, optional elements, variables, and commas.)
Replace echo with apt-get install if you want, but you may need to cut off the items you want to configure and / or install manually.
After that, you need to have an easier time with dpkg -i *.deb . Feel free to try apt-get install --fix-broken anytime if you are stuck.
