gcc installed but not working properly
hi, i installed gcc and now want to compile this plugin for xmms which will enable it to play avi files but the problem is that when i type in ./configure it says :-
______________________________________________________________________________ loading cache ./config.cache checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for working aclocal... missing checking for working autoconf... missing checking for working automake... missing checking for working autoheader... missing checking for working makeinfo... missing checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i tried to google it and some people said i need gcc-c++- but when i try to install that it says i need gcc... when i query the RPM (rpm -q gcc) it says i have gcc-3.4.2-6.fc3 which suggest i have it installed. Maybe i need to uninstall gcc and all the components and install it again, if yes then how can i uninstall it |
i can't remember exactly which packages this means you're missing, probaly glibc-devel, and maybe some others, that i can't recall at all.

yea it does tell me that i am missing two packages called glibc and i think the other one is glibc++-devel or something but when i query them by terminal it says i have them installed

You probably need glibc-devel, as acid_kewpie said. If you didn't have glibc, your system would not function. Anyhow, one easy way to tell is to look at the configure.log that was produced by the configure script. Configure triesd to compile little programs to see what features you have on your system. If it died trying to find header files (stdio.h, stdlib.h, basically something ending in a .h) you're missing glibc-devel.
