Yes, I'm trying to set up gcc, g++, and what-have-you so I can compile stuff on the device itself (N800, OS2008). However, I receive this error from apt-get:

E: Couldn't find package make

To be honest, I get that same, exact message for many, many pieces of software that are referred to here on the forum, even in recent posts. Note: some have worked, such as wget. I keep reading post after post where someone says "just do apt-get install pkgnamehere" and someone replies, "success!," while for me that package apparently no longer exists. What gives? Here's my sources.list.d file:

deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/non-certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo-2/ ./
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ diablo free non-free
deb http://moff.mozilla.com/maemo/multi/ chinook release
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras chinook free non-free

Am I missing a crucial entry here? I come from a background in Slackware - apt-get is foreign to me. All this so I can compile and install freaking nano/pico - which btw also fails on apt-get install. Help, please!
