Use the 'Search the contents of the latest release' form at the bottom of
http://packages.debian.org/.

(which would tell you you need libarts-dev).

Actually, I believe you can edit the makefile to tell it not to look for
libarts.

You want to build libao, then libogg, then libvorbis, then vorbis-tools.

At each step you'll be generating the -dev package that the next step will
need.

And as I've mentioned before, if this seems like a lot of work, just head on
over to http://lly.org/~rcw/abcde/slink/ - it's been done for you.
