There have been many debates on whether build-essential should be installed by default, but it is included on the live-cd, just not installed, so if you do have an issue where you don't have internet and need it, just pop the cd in and install from there.

Python is included because a lot of the utility programs UI's are written with it and need the interpreter.

I think before trying:

sudo apt-get install build-essential
you should try:

sudo apt-get update
then try build-essential.
But you got it to work anyway..
