There is no compiler, headers etc. included on Incognito, so compiling is impossible. All that is stripped in order to reduce the image size. Since Incognito is a LiveCD, our aim is to make it self-contained, and nothing like what you want to do should be required in order to get basic stuff like that to work.

Incognito is based on Gentoo and thus doesn't use APT. The next version will, however, be based on Debian and will thus use APT, which also will be included (so then you'll be able to install stuff
much more easily compared to now).

That might work with some hacking. Most of the root system, including /usr, is write-protected, so gcc, libraries + headers etc. have to be installed into the user's home directory.
