I totally agree. (Trying to) Fix FTBFS bugs is often one of the early steps 
for new devs and without any guide I feel this task is pretty complicated.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/devweek1007/GetStarted gives a 
couple of hints (missing library, request a sync), maybe it could be a starting point.
I really believe helping people in this phase is crucial (the risk is they give up).

  It'd be great to have a guide to fix FTBFS bugs. At least a few common
  cases we should discuss and point out advice on how to fix them.
