+ [needs-packaging] Replacement for build-essential with more manpages and 
helper packages

** Description changed:

+ It would be nice to have a package that developers could install that
+ installed all the essential building packages as well as manpages and
+ helper packages not explicitly needed by the build daemons
+ 
+ ---original report---
+ build-essential does not include complete manpages for its libraries
+ 
  Binary package hint: build-essential
  
  Ubuntu version: 9.04
  Package version: build-essential 11.4
  What I expected to happen: development manpages to be included when i 
installed build tools
  What happened instead: they weren't
  
  Development manpages are generally fractured between a few packages
  (namely manpages-dev, glibc-doc and manpages-posix, there may be
  others).  build-essential should suggest these packages for
  installation.

** Tags added: needs-packaging
