Isn't "apt-get build-dep wireshark" a much easier way of doing the same thing?

Would that install "tools needed to build the package that "apt-get install wireshark" would install" or would it 
install "tools needed to do full-blown development of the version of Wireshark on the trunk, even if the version on the 
trunk incorporates a whole bunch of new functionality needing new libraries"?

The latter is what I'm aiming for here (especially given that Debian-and-its-derivatives are often proudly 
trailing-edge in the versions of software that they offer, e.g. I think they might still offer Wireshark 1.6 by 
default).
