??? So openbox is dependent on something unpleasant?  The below is what I
found when I googled it:

//--clip
Compiling Openbox should be a relatively painless experience. You will
need the following packages:

    C compiler (such as GCC)
    Libc library and headers (development package)
    Xlib library and headers (development package)
    Xext and Xrandr library and headers (development package) -
optional but recommended 

    Glib-2 library and headers (development package)
    LibXML-2 library and headers (development package)
    Pango library and headers (development package)
    Imlib2 (development package) - optional but recommended
    Startup-notification library and headers (development package) -
optional but recommended XCursor library and headers (development
package) - optional but recommended Pkg-config 

These should all be available through your distribution.
Dependencies in Ubuntu and Debian

In Ubuntu and Debian, install the following packages:

    build-essential
    pkg-config
    libpango1.0-dev
    libglib2.0-dev
    libxml2-dev
    libxcursor-dev
    libimlib2-dev
    libstartup-notification0-dev
    xlibs-dev
    libxext-dev
    x11proto-randr-dev
