apt-get install build-essential
fails with the following errors:
~$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
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 had just run sudo apt-get update
before trying this install.
The folder /etc/apt/sources.list.d is empty. Here's the meat of /etc/apt/sources.list:
$ grep deb http: /etc/apt/sources.list #(with "deb http://" deleted)

This with ubuntu 13.04 64 bit.
