One dependency we likely can't do anything about is libgmp10, though we should add a comment to the download page about it. Beyond that, I just noticed when running via Docker that there's a dependency of xz:
# ./stackage-setup
setup for snapshot: lts-2.5
Selecting ghc-7.8
downloading: ghc-7.8.4-x86_64-unknown-linux-deb7.tar.xz
Verified sha1: 11aec12d4bb27f6fa59dcc8535a7a3b3be8cb787
Decompressing XZ archive
tar (child): xz: Cannot exec: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
stackage-setup: callProcess: tar "xJf" "ghc-7.8.4-x86_64-unknown-linux-deb7.tar.xz" (exit 2): failed
It would be better if stackage-setup started by checking for presence of all necessary executables. I'll continue adding error messages I see when installing via Docker.
