Assuming you are getting these packages from a genuine ubuntu repo the short answer is enter y instead of n. The long answer is that the GPG key you have installed for verifying package signing doesn't match the new packages. You probably should do "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-keyring". And then try the "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
