CVS is somewhat more difficult, but the "apt-get build-dep" will give
you a good approximation of a package setup needed to build the CVS
source. (It'll be more difficult if the dependencies change more
dramatically, as probably for the g2 branch.)

But while we're at whishlist:
I'm not 100% certain whether that was g-wrap at fault, but at some point
it struck me as odd that the guile bindings try to load the lib*.so
links instead of the lib*.so.X.

Cheers
