We're not going to include the full build-tools on a default install... Too few people will need it. Thanks for the suggestion though, and please keep reporting bugs to Ubuntu.

I think that's good to include build-essential and checkinstall by default, because it's easier to compile a file. -- This isn't a needs-packaging bug report because build-essential and checkinstall are already packaged.
