  1. Do you want to make a "make file" or compile it?

    If it's for writing a make file: gedit or your preferred editor.

    If it's for compilation, it's easy: gcc, g++, make, devtools (or maybe dev-tools or development-tools).

  2. Best Answer

    build_essential to start with. Then you can install necessary dependancies/support libraries based off apt-get build-dep, or the error messages from ./configure.

    If you want to grow together a quick and dirty deb for install, use checkinstall instead of make install
