I have just had occasion to install Linux Mint 21.3 on a new machine
and have just built GnuCash 5.5 on the almost pristine system. I only
had a couple of packages installed before building GnuCash (LibreOfiice
and Gimp).  

The following list is the dependencies I had to install to get a
successful build. In most cases just loading the development headers is
all that should be necessary to build GnuCash but I included the
libraries as well. There may be a few not listed which were instaled by
default or by previous packages I had installed but it should be pretty
complete. I'm including this if anyone wants to use it as the basis of
a bash script to load the dependencies or wants to update an existing
script for G C5.5.
