Hello Jessica, and thank you for your rapid response. Your explanation
of the dependency situation with pbuilder and ubuntu-dev-tools is
helpful. However, I don't understand why pbuilder itself is only
suggested and not required by ubuntu-dev-tools. According to the Ubuntu
Packaging Manual(https://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/getting-set-
up.html#set-up-pbuilder), pbuilder is a necessary tool for the packaging
process. I think that pbuilder, and by extension python3-distutils
should both be required by ubuntu-dev-tools.

Kind regards,
Computerworm01001
