You need to install libzip-dev and libxslt1-dev. There might be some other
packages as well that need to be installed. They should be Documented on
README and our web page building instructions
http://subsurface.hohndel.org/building/. Following packages should fulfill
the dependencies.

libxml2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libglib2.0-dev libgconf2-dev libsoup2.4-dev
libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev libosmgpsmap-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev autoconf libtool

There is also an option to install Subsurface from Launchapd  (
http://subsurface.hohndel.org/download/) if you do not plan on coding
yourself.
