I do not understand this statement.
Package: libxext-dev
Section: libdevel
Architecture: any
Depends: libxext6 (= ${Source-Version}), x-dev, libc6-dev | libc-dev
Conflicts: xlibs-dev (<< 4.3.0)
Replaces: xlibs-dev (<< 4.3.0)
Description: X Window System miscellaneous extension library development files
Header files and a static version of the Xext library are provided by this
package.
.
See the libxext6 package for further information.
How is a missing dependency that isn't missing an important bug against
libxext-dev?

I would expect that liquidwar needs to:
Build-Depends: libxext-dev | xlibs-dev (<< 4.3.0)
...among any other build-dependencies it has.
Why is this a libxext-dev bug?
