        Hey there,

 I've setup mk-build-deps for installation with aptitude.  I found that
 the dpkg + aptitude run with -f install caused aptitude to select the
 -build-deps package for removal to fix the broken package.  I patched
 mk-build-deps using the same approach as in
 pbuilder-satisfydepends-aptitude, which is to pass the package name on
 the install command, I added the map() below to the system call:
    system shellwords($install_tool), '-f', 'install',
        map("$_-build-deps", @packages);

 and this worked.

   Thanks for considering,

 NB: would be cool to have the ~/.devscripts opts in the man page and an
 option to do the installation with sudo all the time (i.e. no need for
 sudo + -i).
