you can compile hello.c with nothing more than installing a few
packages. running sudo apt-get IS installing a few packages.

if build-essential is not in the ubuntu install CD (is it not?), you could use 
this trick:

[Bug 79418] Standard installation does not produce a working environment

2007-01-15 Thread Rickr765
Public bug reported:

Install  Ubuntu 6.10 and all programming development packages. Type in
hello.c from any standard C book. Try to compile it. stdio.h is not
found. find command shows that file does not exist. Your forums say to
issue a sudo apt-get command. That command does not work and does not
find the file.

I have a suite of tests for testing Linux distros, and this is the first
time any Linux distro has not produced a working C compiler environment.
It is a serious bug.

I can't currently install Ubuntu completely on

Re: [Bug 79418] Re: Standard installation does not produce a working environment

Yes, I found that in the Community Forums and it did
work.

However, you are wrong in your assertion that Ubuntu
allows you to compile hello.c with nothing more than
installing a few packages. There is nothing in the
standard packages that includes build-essential.  Try
it: Do a fresh installation on a clean machine and,
without using the sudo apt-get, try to compile
hello.c. You will not be able to.

One poster on Community Forums said that Ubuntu should
include build-essential with any development packages
as a dependency.

I can't currently install Ubuntu completely on
friends' computers who don't have internet
connectivity. I'll have to bring their computers to my
house. I'm adding this sudo apt-get to my list of
things to do on each computer.

Let me say, Ubuntu 6.10 is by far the best Linux
distro I've ever seen! It installs smoothly and works
great. Excellent job!

Excellent link. I'll build a package CD and include it with the standard 
installation CD. Thanks!
   
  (no, build-essential is not on the install CD)

you can compile hello.c with nothing more than installing a few
packages. running sudo apt-get IS installing a few packages.

if build-essential is not in the ubuntu install CD (is it not?), you could use 
this trick:

[Bug 123696] Re: dependency problem on Kubuntu

2007-12-17 Thread Rickr765
I tried nem75's workaround. But I have another problem. Knetworkmanager
does not appear to do ANYTHING AT ALL. Generic GG installation, click on
Knetworkmanager from K menu, nothing happens at all.

This is very bad.  From a user standpoint, you should never have any
menu options on a system which do nothing at all.

I added knetworkmanager as an icon on the desktop. Click it, it does
nothing. Right-click Open, it does nothing.
