this has nothing to do with build-essential, but with out-of-date
mirrors.

Title:
  Unable to install build-essential due to dependacy issue

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Running Breezy (kubuntu).

  You can't install build-essential due to a broblem with libc6.  libc6 that comes
  with breezy is 2.3.5-1ubuntu12.  However when you install build-essential, it
  requires libc6-dev which has a dependency of 

  =2.3.5-1ubuntu8

  I believe it should be >= so newer versions of libc6 doesn't prevent
  other installs.
