aptitude install xserver-xorg-core

But you'll already have that; you want the development .debs.

ISTM that you'd be better off installing xine-ui or gxine or some other
xine-lib front end via the package manager.

(If you have deb-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.list, then "apt-cache showsrc
xine-lib" will tell you what's needed; usually, this is close enough to what
upstream needs. In this case, it is.)
