    gcc and make missing?

    I have noticed to my total dismay that when I try to install my wifi drivers (a complete hassle on its own for many people) I got to the first step where I need to type:
    make <something>
    Command not found.
    Alright, don't panic, just install make right? Nope. gcc not found.
    These truly necessary and common utilities are always present in linux distros and I think in Ubuntu too. Is it supposed to be in Kubuntu or am I missing something here?
    I can't imagine installing every little package from scratch - tried scrolling through debians 8000+ package list and decided not to go that way, and Kubuntu seems really nice with everything from nice touchpad drivers to detecting my Samsung media player

    Summary: Where is 'make' and 'gcc'?

    Install the package "build-essential". It will insall everything you need to compile from source.
