Okay, it seems I have to add "Section: universe/devel" to tell it to
also grab its dependencies from universe, but it still doesn't work.

         -> Considering build-dep libjack0.100.0-dev
           -> Trying libjack0.100.0-dev
               -> Cannot install libjack0.100.0-dev; apt errors follow:

        E: Couldn't find package libjack0.100.0-dev
        W: Unable to locate package libjack0.100.0-dev
        E: Could not satisfy build-dependency.
        E: pbuilder-satisfydepends failed.

The only definition I could find on 'ogre-model', is something from you:

        https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/137769/comments/6
        
        Ok, 'ogre-model' is a rule that tells the builder to lookup for
        build-dependencies only in the target source component or
        lowers, as in the chart below:
        
        {{{
        || target component || build-dep lookup ||
        || main || main ||
        || restricted || main, restricted ||
        || universe || main, restricted, universe ||
        || multiverse || main, restricted, universe, multiverse ||
        || partner || main, restricted, partner ||
        }}}

...but I don't understand that at all.
