I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and I have been trying to get up and run the C programs in codeblocks IDE and it keeps getting me this following error.

Checking for existence: /media/darkpheonix/dptech/dptech/Projects/C/techtheory/bin/Debug/techtheory
    Set variable: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:
    Executing: xterm -T techtheory -e /usr/bin/cb_console_runner LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:. /media/darkpheonix/dptech/dptech/Projects/C/techtheory/bin/Debug/techtheory  (in /media/darkpheonix/dptech/dptech/Projects/C/techtheory/.)
    Process terminated with status -1 (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))


I tried sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
Then tried installing the build essential packages from the main server. sudo apt-get install build-essentials.
This keep getting me following error.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package build-essential is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'build-essential' has no installation candidate

I tried different sources but doesn't seem to solve this issue. Please help

sudo apt-get install build-essential This worked. Simply use essential not essentials

Solved it!

Step 1

GCC compiler configurations

You have to run the

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/path/to/sdk/lib"

to export the path to the compilers.
Default path is in usr/bin
Copy and paste the path into the your_lib.conf file in the location /etc/ld.so.conf.d then save and exit.

sudo ldconfig

Run this to confirm the changes in the files which added the paths.

Step 2

xterm configuration

Install xterm into the operating system.

sudo apt-get install xterm

Check and make sure that it is in the latest version of the configurations and then test the CODEBLOCKS project, build and run them as a console application.

This answers the `build essential` issue but still has to figure out the `path` error in there. `Set variable: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:` this one

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
