OK, you installed the package - but what did you after installing it?
Which command did you called that failed and is exposing the problem?
I checked the linked libraries:
$ ldd /usr/bin/mosdepth
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fffa19fc000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fb43a39d000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb43a657000)
The package (also in the new upstream version which I could upload once
this is clarified) passes its CI test on our development platform[1].
Also the CI test in all Debian releases and architectures is passing
nicely[2].

Please write the error you get first ...

... and than what is happening after this.
It does not sound very convincing that the development package is
needed. Most probably your system will be solved by installing libhts3.
But first I would like to know what the problem really is.

Please define `works`. As in the given test CI links it works as
well.

Dependencies from libraries are usually detected automatically which
works in general with extremely rare exceptions. Its very uncommon that
a non-development package needs a *-dev package.

This is the only library that should be needed.
So please give the command line you called and the error message
that made you assume what is missing - ideally with the data you
used to enable us reproducing the problem.
Kind regards
Andreas.
