Description:
When I tried to build nix package from sources, I was missing some build dependencies. I think we should add them into `makedepends`.

Missing packages:
- bison
- automake
- flex

Steps to reproduce:
1) download nix package sources
2) `makepkg -s`
This task depends upon

bison, automake and flex are all dependencies of base-devel is which is expected to be installed [1] before building any package.
