RE: [newbie] GCC is missing....grrrr
I have sort of the same issue. I did access the RPM files and reinstall it. They put the compiler in the /usr/ area. You will see a subdir for i586, i486, and i386. My problem, even after installing the RPM files, I still get the "gcc c complier can not make executable." error message. Even after manually putting these directory structurs in the LD_LIBARY_PATH and PATH environment. At least now it is not giving me "can not locate crt1.0" error. Now it is erroring out on a include file, which has nothing in it. I am told if you do not select the "developer" option when installing Linux, then the system is not setup correctly to compile. That does not make much sence, but figure I will spend about 4 hours tonight proving that theory. Hope that helps some.

Hmmm..another question about this whole fiasco. I dled the rpm ...transfered it to teh server, and from a ssh sesion I was not able to install the rpm. Is this because of security and installs like that can not be made remotly? (and is this somethign I would be responsible for ?) Or is it because I am missing some of the dependicies? Any help is greatly appreciate. Thanks for the info Monte M. Kat Monte Milanuk wrote: > Welcome to one of the 'quirks' of Mandrake 7.0 ( I presume that is what > flavor you have).

Welcome to one of the 'quirks' of Mandrake 7.0 ( I presume that is what flavor you have). If I recall, if you don't select 'Custom', and 'Development' during install, or otherwise explicitly specify to install the compiler, you don't get it. If you are downloading an *.rpm file, you should be able to install that no problem, assuming you have all the dependencies (required files/libraries,etc.) satisfied.
