Yes, Debian packages need to work, so all dependencies that correlates 
to Debian "Build-Depends:", "Depends:" or "Recommends:" need to be 
packaged as well.  Build routines must avoid any reliance on network 
access.

Weaker dependencies correlating to Debian "Suggests:" preferrably should 
be packaged too, but may be skipped.
