The 'build-essential' meta package provides a decent set of
development packages.  You'll need libssl-dev.

Actually, a good starting point would be to look at the build
dependencies listed in
<http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/plt-scheme/plt-scheme_4.1.5-1.dsc>

for the existing Ubuntu package, which should be quite close.
