Hi,

You should install build-essential
What distribution are you using?

Welcome to LQ!

Installing a compiler is one of those odd things - basically, you need a compiler to compile the compiler. Therefore, the best way for most people is to use a precompiled package for your distribution.

You don't say what distribution you are using. If it is Ubuntu - try using
This will give you the C compiler (gcc) along with other useful tools such as make, and give you most of the base development libraries.

I hope this helps,
