Making a new imake package (as it was in dapper) would solve the bug I was about to report. On Edgy, I still have the imake and xmkmf packges installed, which probably should have been replaced by xutils-dev when I upgraded to Edgy. Because of this, I had satisfied build-deps for kdebase, which still wouldn't build (separate bug, probably, but would be solved by your suggestion, I think).
** Changed in: xutils-dev (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- xutils-dev provides imake|xmkmf, which is needed by non-dev packages https://launchpad.net/bugs/63819 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
