this seems to be not true, usually runtime dependencies are evaluated, just 
assuming somebody dynamically
links to them.
Did you link them statically and then got that problem? if you link 
dinamically, and you build the package,
you should get the runtime dependencies automatically evaluated for you.

this is not a problem, just make sure you open a bug against ftp.debian.org 
with reportbug and ask for their removal.



cheers,
