I see no sign of any existing package either, but it was a good thought
to check first.

I would recommend installing the following packages, all of which I
expect should independently improve your experience:

build-essential (a metapackage for various generally useful development tools)
libgd2-xpm-dev (development files for a library for producing image files)
libplot-dev (development files for a graph-drawing library)
libreadline-dev (development files for an input-line editing library)

You should then be able to say "yes" for all three.
