+(almost) all packages, from the UI/API components to backend components to our
+Linux Kernel.  If you only want to hack on specific topics you won't need most
+of those.
+Instead we try to have a complete list of build dependencies in each source
+repositories 'debian/control' file. If you run `make deb` dpkg-buildpackage
+will stop and tell you if you miss some required packages.

+WARNING: this list is almost for sure outdated! Use the build-deps definitions

+helpers) and use:
