@joao ...or better: don't specify the dependencies in the README itself at all. Rather have a link in there that points to a *tested* list of dependencies (e.g. to the deps installed during gitlab-ci). That makes sure that those build dependencies are tested on commit (and hence must be updated when code changes need new dependencies).

e.g. does this at gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/p
