I'm afraid I don't have the time to commit to it :( The main question that needs answering is: Are all the packages listed in /usr/share/doc/build-essential/essential-packages-list and /usr/share/doc/build-essential/list available and installable? If not, then the list is outdated and needs fixing. If they are, then there's a problem with sbuild. Virtual packages are not resolved automatically in 0.60.4; you'll need to set $resolve_virtual=1 in your sbuild configuration (for the internal resolver; the apt/aptitude resolvers do this automatically).
