fvwm95

[Monty Levere]

I am attempting to install fvwm95 in redhat linux 5.2 and get the following
error when I run ./configure

Checking whether the C compiler (gcc -0) work ... no
Configure error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.

I tried to copy the compressed file to the directory /usr/localsrc, however
it won't let me.  Is this possibly the root of my problem?

Thank you for your time.
