RE: [expert] gcc compile error

You are missing a compiler component or the compiler itself failed to
install. Put your Drake CDROM in then open /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS look for
gcc files. I am at work on an NT box so I can't give you the actual name.
Then as root issue rpm -i gcc_whatever_version.rpm if I remember correctly
there are a total of 12 packages just for C / C++ compilers.

Instaling gcc make and automake on a instalation afther the normanl install
I get the following error on ./configure

-
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.
-

I used 
rpm --install 
to install the files. What did I do wrong and how can I fix this without
reinstalling Mandrake 7.02

I know that this program compiles with Mandrake if I do a devoloper
instalation.

I had this problem last week. Ended up being a corrupt Perl installation. 
Reinstalled Perl and all is fine again.

Sounds like a ./configure --prefix=/usr is required on build

check and see if the software wasn't installed in /usr/local rather than /usr

Sounds like the glibc-devel package is missing.
