[patch] Update README files for Debian dependencies

Hi, folks,

As I was resolving the dependencies I needed to build gnucash out of 
svn, I updated the README files somewhat to reflect the current status 
quo on Debian testing.  I tried to capture what I needed both for the 
automake run as well as configuring and building.  I also updated the 
Debian package version lists in README.dependencies.  I checked the 
versions against stable as well, so I think it's ok.

Let me know if anything is amiss.

Thanks,
Jerry Quinn
