In my experience these bugs generally occur when a user installs a
library that I have never used/heard of before - as such I generally
miss them regardless of the build environment. Even if I did happen to
have that library accidently installed for the build - I probably
wouldn't notice that there is a minor (perhaps obsolete) feature
enabled with no corresponding build-depends.
