This is intentional. flatpak-builder is not required to consume other
people's Flatpak packages, only to compile your own[1].
Similarly, dpkg doesn't depend on, recommend or even suggest dpkg-dev
or debhelper - it's essentially the same situation.
flatpak-builder also recommends build and VCS tools (binutils, elfutils,
bzr, git) which most Flatpak users won't want. When desktop tasks like
task-gnome have Depends or Recommends on flatpak, which I expect they
probably will in Debian 10, we won't want installing the GNOME desktop
to pull in those development tools.
If you do want flatpak-builder, it's available in the flatpak-builder
package.
Regards,
S
[1] Strictly speaking, you can build and export your own Flatpak
packages with just flatpak, but you can't use the JSON files that
are the input to flatpak-builder, and you have to do more of the
process the hard way.
