Dear Maintainer,

The package bino fails to build from source, because it demands the
presence of libharfbuzz-dev, assuming it as a dependency of package libass.

The configure script fails as seen below:

> configure: WARNING: required library libass not found:
> configure: WARNING: Package harfbuzz was not found in the pkg-config search 
> path.
> Perhaps you should add the directory containing `harfbuzz.pc'

Since bino itself needs it, maybe it would be interesting to include it as
a build-dep, as found in the patch attached.

Thanks.

Fernando
