Issue
I've looked all over and build essentials are all I see that was replaced by Development tools. When I type the command I receive "no such command".
What is the alternative to this?
Solution
apt-get build-dep package-i-want-to-build to get everything you need to build package - often the easiest way to get the dev tools is to pick a sufficiently complicated package like pidgin and run this
or
apt-get install build-essential to just get a compiler
