E: Build-dependencies for gnome-applets could not be satisfied.

I'm trying to rebuild the gnome-applets deb package in Ubuntu 9. How can I get all the dependency packages to do so???

PHP Code:



chris@ubuntu:~/Build/gnome-applets-2.26.0$ sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-applets 
Reading package lists... Done 
Building dependency tree        
Reading state information... Done 
E: Build-dependencies for gnome-applets could not be satisfied.

May be not much help, this is what I get .....

Attached, the output from
'sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-applets'
( mostly, all Danish words were removed ).

Also attached : /etc/apt/sources.list
.....

The problem is solved, and I'll post the answer for those who search the forums.

I was missing a few things from my sources.list, maybe jaunty-updates main. I added them with softwaremanager-gtk. I didn't make this mistake, but be sure all src repositories are enabled. And now I have the rebuilt deb for 64-bit gnome-applets to include minicommander panel applet. If anyone would like the debs for Ubuntu 9.04, you can ask me for them. They are 64-bit debs, but I can create 32-bit ones with a 32 bit ubuntu running in vmware.
