I guess you should get both the ordinary depends and the build-depends. I fail to see where there should be problems. It's "just" a depency-check. Ohhh, depencies is placed in debian/control and most of the times it is decided on compile time which packages to depend on. That could be a problem if you only want one download phase. Is there examples of packages where build-depends is available but the newly build package is not instalable on the system? (And should this could happen)
