title: how to update make 3.81 linux
body: <p>I am new to Linux (new as in installed it yesterday), I need it for my programming course in the university and I've been told to install specific versions of specific programs, but though I've used apt-get install to install them (having previously done apt-get update) they aren't in the correct version.</p>
  
  <p>The programs that I need are make 4.0 and valgrind 3.10.1.</p>
  
  <p>apt-get installs make 3.81 and valgrind 3.10.0.SVN.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried typing "apt-get install make4.0" and "apt-get install valgrind10.3.1" to no avail. I have downloaded them from the internet and followed what instructions I could understand to install the newer versions but it keeps saying that I have the older ones. (I'm not sure if I can post direct links here, if I can let me know and I'll post where I got them from).</p>
  
  <p>What have I been doing wrong? How can I fix this?</p>
  
  <p>I am currently running Linux Mint.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any answer in advance.</p>
