OK put in your install CD and boot from it when it comes to class of install select EXPERT and UPGRADE (yes upgrade from your current distro to your current distro) It will fuss and cluck for a while then ask for packages tick the one that says "Development" If you want to compile things you need that. Go on to individual package selection You might just want to click the symbol at the bottom that toggles to the flat list then scroll along and read about the various (and many ) compilers available. gcc, gcc-gnat(ada), cim, smalltalk, etc, and also make sure that EVERYTHING ending in -devel is selected. Then let the update spin--just cancel each of the remaining steps to leave things as they are, or skip them as the case may be. You might want to install some interpreters like expect, ruby, cint, pike, basic-X11 (not all in the distro) and maybe some additional compilers like xbasic (www.xbasic.org) You can have a system that is A B C development small footprint large footprint GUI/Office Choose one from colum A and one from Column B, or Two from column A and one from column C Civileme
