That got me to yapps2 which pulled in 9 other packages, the intltool-extract, which apt can't find to install.
So at this point I skipped fwd to building the .deb, useing #>$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc and its checkdeps is giving me a 6 line list of stuff to apt install. Just 60% of the first line is 842 MB of additional disk space will be used. But its a 64GB card, shrug. Not quite 1.5GB of stuff pulled in. First pass bailed out, couldn't load yapps although yapps2 was installed. Guessed around with apt and it finally installed python-yapps. That satisfied it it so the deb is under contruction again. This will take a while.
