Re: lush dependencies (was: Re: [Lush-users] fortran/Debian/package)

I would include the following required dependencies:

- gcc/g++
- libx11-dev
- libinutils-dev
- indent
- libreadline5
- libreadline5-dev
- libgsl0
- libgsl0-dev

I would include GSL in "required", because, although Lush runs 
without it, almost everyone uses Lush for some sort of 
numerical stuff.

Recommended dependendcies would include:

- opengl (freeglut3, freeglut3-dev, libgl1-mesa-dev)
- SDL development packages (libsdl1.2debian, libsdl1.2-dev)
- BLAS/LAPACK (lapack3, lapack3-dev).
- OpenCV (not sure which packages)
