So what?  Make sure it build-depends on the other packages (that's the
REQUIRES line in the Makefile or in package-info.in) and require's
them at run-time.  If they're not present, you'll get a very obvious
error message.  That's what `require' is for.  The build dependency
will ensure that package admin recommends them at install time (right,
Steve Y?).
