After I install a fresh copy of ubuntu and I need to install build-essentials, I have to type: sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade

before installing build-essentials

These two commands take a LOOTTT of time and install many things.

Is there a way to install build-essentials without running these two commands, or a way that these two commands don't install all the updates and hence will take less time.
