This is really a very basic question and perhaps should be a new thread but the list serve still won't let me create new threads for some reason !!!
I found openldap.org and have been attempting to install it. Part of the process is to run a script called "configue" that will check if the various things that are needed for the install are in place. The output is as follows: debian:/etc/openldap/openldap-2.3.35# ./configure Configuring OpenLDAP 2.3.35-Release ... checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking configure arguments... done checking for cc... no checking for gcc... no configure: error: Unable to locate cc(1) or suitable replacement. Check PATH or set CC. I think I have fugured out that CC1 is located in the /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.1.2 folder and I have added that folder to the environment variable PATH so now PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/ usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.1.2 But configure still can't find it ... so I need to "Set CC" as an environment variable. CC=/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.1.2/cc1 But that didn't work nor did CC show up when I did a "printenv" either. So how does one create an environment variable in Linux, or Debian or Etch?
