There's no reason that kaptain should build-depend on libxinerama-dev; this
should be a dependency of libqt3-mt-dev instead.  Which it will be, once
libqt3-mt-dev goes through the C++ ABI transition.

It would be a good idea for kaptain to be updated to the most recent Debian
version of libtool, in any case, so that kaptain doesn't end up pulling in
dependencies on arbitrary libraries it doesn't use.
