I didn't see anything on the wiki regarding repositories. In fact, this is what I suspected to be the problem. What repositories should be added to the base installation. I simply installed from the Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop CD and have done no additional configuration. I'd like to update the wiki to include instructions for starting from a basic fresh installation and getting the entire toolchain built.
