humm, despite aptitude's inability to find it, apt did install it and 17 
other packages.  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.  So if anyone is following along, they can.
