It's really difficult to maintain this list and it doesn't make any sense on deb-based systems anyways when there's apt build-dep. In all other elementary projects, we keep this as just a list

Also instead of keeping a redundant list, just say you can omit the wingpanel dep

I have always used this as an one-liner, because I keep forgetting about apt build-dep.
Could you put an info about how to use apt build-dep also?
