Help needed on CC package

zombiechum · 03-20-2009, 04:55 AM

Hi GNUs,

I am a regular user of Fedora. In a system, where there was no DVD
drive nor net-connection, I installed Fedora 10 from a Live CD for
temporary use. As no C compilers was there, I was about to install the
GCC package. Configuring the package system returns a message that CC
compiler is missing. Do GCC package not include CC? If so, how to get
it?

Welcome to LQ.

The recommended method to get 'gcc' is : 1) 'su'
2) # yum install gcc ( Or use the package manager )

And it will by default be setup with /usr/bin/cc
as a symlink to /usr/bin/gcc .

If the link is missing, please do : 'cd /usr/bin/'
.. 'su' .. 'ln -s gcc cc'
.....
P.S.: If the package 'glibc-devel' is missing, gcc,
cc has no function, and might be declared missing.?
