You are missing the libxt-dev package.

But, why do you want to build DDD yourself?  If you simply want to use 
it to debug LilyPond, you can just install it from the repository.  A 
lot easier, and will save you a lot of headache in the future.

Also, is there a particular reason to prefer DDD for C++ debugging?  I 
find Eclipse CDT a lot better in any thinkable respect.  (But then 
again, I am biased, being one of the founders of the Eclipse project).
