./configure problem !

wlaw · 06-24-2004, 01:05 AM

I¡@got the following message when I typed ./configure

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for style of include used by make... GNU
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl... no
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

Where is the C compiler located ?
How to add it to my PATH ??

Did you select the development package in install? If not, you don't have the compilers. Use add/remove applications and pop in the install CDs to install the development package.

I wonder why did you post this question under this thread...

What distribution are you using?
Try this to locate your C compiler:

$ find / -name "*cc*"

You may get unwanted results but try to look for cc or gcc.
But it is most probably not installed as it should usually be put inside a common path...

And Wlaw - politeness dictates that you start your own thread - not hijack someone else's.

You will notice that I have now split your thread off.

XavierP · 06-24-2004, 03:01 AM

and now I have merged both of your threads.

I am sorry ! I am not intended to do it ! Just by mistake and this forum doesn't provide the kill post function !

By the way,now I've got another problem after installing the compiler !
I type make install by root and got the following in red !

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

what's wrong this time ?

When building from source you will not only need the rpm packages that the program you're building depends on but their -devel companion packages as well. As far as I can see, Redhat 9 comes with pspell-0.12.2-16.i386.rpm as its pspell package. You will need to install pspell-devel-0.12.2-16.i386.rpm as well in order to build software that depends on pspell. The same goes for most rpm packages.
