Problem installing amsn
I am totally new to Linux, and want to learn...
I tried installing amsn on my RedHat8 and am unable to do so. i type ./amsn and it comes back with: >bash: ./amsn: /usr/bin/wish: bad interpreter: No such file or directory i have worked out that wish is part of the tcl package, wich I also downloaded. when i exctract the tar and run ./configure, it gives me: >loading cache ./config.cache >checking whether to use symlinks for manpages... no >checking compression for manpages... no >checking for gcc... no >checking for cc... no >configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH I take it cc is some kind of compiler, but where do I find it from? I tried found gcc but it seems that it also needs cc to install itself. If someone could help me out here, it would be really great... ;-) |
Install the gcc and gcc-devel rpm's from your redhat cd.
|
and f course use a decent client instead like gaim.
as for your dependency.. cc is a fallback in the case that gcc is not found. most configure scripts look for 5 or 6 potential compilers before giving up. |
Thank you :-) it is working now :-)
