here is what you need for ubunto or debian:
  (install all packages on the build-depends line)

http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-grass/packages/grass/trunk/debian/control?view=markup

maybe one or two package names will need to be modified.

see also the notes in GRASS's debian/ directory for semi-automatic package
building.
