Question help - installing gcc 3.4.3 on RedHat 9


howdy all,

I have a Red Hat 9 box that's primarily used for Linux learning purposes. Right now I'm trying to update a bunch of the modules, and while I'm a decent Linux user, I'm a newbie to a lot of it's configuration.

I have a list of modules I'm trying to bring up to date. The machine doesn't have GCC installed. I have gcc-3.4.3 downloaded and uncompressed. When I try to do a "./configure" I get an error message telling me I have to "set the environment variable CC to a working compiler"...

And until I get GCC on there, I assume I HAVE no working compiler...

Lil help?

The easiest solution for you is installing it from an rpm package. Heres a quick search to get you started:
