It's not that complicated, once you discover that to install gcc, you don't. You install build-essential.
@Videonauth In Ubuntu 18.04 gcc is not installed by default – Arun Oct 1 '18 at 16:04
You should first run sudo apt update then sudo apt install build-essential – Arun Oct 1 '18 at 16:02

Plenty of questions going back several years. That indicates that Ubuntu intends for it to work that way.
Sadly, many of the methods suggested to fix this just don't work. Pretty frustrating, when Mint does it correctly, out of the box.
