It runs fine ( on that system ).

Yes. True. I could / should have express more clearly
that I was showing only the _first part_ of a working build.

Answer follows.
This report (reported to bug tracking system) is to tell:
Hey, this is strange, I have build dependencies defined,
but upon build I got error on missing build dependency.
Meanwhile I know / learned that some build dependencies are
needed _outside_ the {p,cow}builder.
What I did was `gbp buildpackage`. And I got I working on one system.
On another system it failed. Both times I assumed, in fact expected,
that "gbp" was doing the magic.
> Shall we reassign to pbuilder?
Leave it here and mark it as "wouldnotfix"
The idea is being part of git-buildpackage documentation.
I think more people will do `gbp buildpackage` on a fresh system
with expectation that git-buildbuildpackage, gbp, has done te proper setup.
Before I reported my exprience, I did visit
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=git-buildpackage
with a webbrowser. Did a text search on the page ( "control-F" ) on 'depen'
but got no hit. People now coming to the (bug)report overview page
will find a BR with title:
git-buildpackage: strange moment of installing build dependencies
Summary: I don't think it makes NO sense re-assign to pbuilder. ( or cowbuilder)
