Thanks, but I was just working from the top part of the docs, and they don't say anything about these packages, and the apt-get build-dep, etc. don't know to install them. Then, what you mention is in a commentary at the end. I think maybe some improvement in that page is in order. There is a step by step list of operations in section 2.1 that includes the --enable-build-documentation option, which won't work if you just follow the steps in order. (Not trying to be critical, just that the docs should try to have the right steps listed in order. This is my first experience with the 8.04 Ubuntu.)
