Problems with 8.04.1

[Gerald I. Evenden]

I just installed a downloaded DVD of Kubuntu 8.04.1 amd64 to replace my 
outdated Dapper.  The installation was a little ragged but managed on the 
last run to get to 96% and a statement that it was removing unnecessary file 
and then it just went into hyperspace.  Hitting the power button caused a 
GRUB boot into the new system and everything seemed to work  ... up to a 
point.

One can do a "gcc hello.c" but gcc can't find the stdio.h header file.  In 
fact, the /usr/include directory is nearly empty.

I cannot find anything related to C or compilers on adept.

I am totally clueless on how to get my bread-and-butter software up and 
running!

Oh yes, I cannot find a damned thing related to the TeX system on adept 
either.

There are other lesser issues like where is ccat (encryption stuff), etc., 
that was part of basic Dapper instalation?
