This installs runtime libraries, but not their development packages.
For each libsomething42-3 you need to figure out the appropriate
libsomething-dev and then apt install that too.

It's a pain and I'd rather use apt build-dep or look up the build
dependencies in a git repo somewhere (the Debian vim package has them in
https://salsa.debian.org/vim-team/vim/blob/debian/sid/debian/control
and I doubt Ubuntu patches the build dependency list).
