According to https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/list-dvd/debian-9.9.0-amd64-DVD-1.list.gz there should be build-essential_12.3_amd64.deb So you would have to be more specific about what DVD image you use and what software especially is missing. Are you sure that it is listed as dependency at https://packages.debian.org/unstable/build-essential ? In general, debian-user mailing list is not the right place to request additions to the content of Debian installation images or advise how to create own images with added packages. debian-9.9.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso is a matter of debian...@lists.debian.org debian-live-9.9.0-amd64-xfce.iso would belong to debian-l...@lists.debian.org (Consider to subscribe before you send mail there and to stay subscribed as long as the discussion goes on.)
