New to Linux, need help installing programs...
Ok, well i've learned the necessary commands and such to install thru the shell, but now that i know that I am getting a "configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH" error with every programs that i've tried to intall.....what needs to be done to fix this.
P.S. also if you need to know, I'm trying to install Python and also Pilot Link for my Handspring.... |
that is telling you that you do not have a c compiler installed. The simpilest way to install it would be from your install cds. Every disto does it a little different. In redhat there used to be a add/remove programs(something like that). You will want to install all of your development stuff.
It is a good idea to place your distibution that you use in your profile, that way peole can be more helpful :-) |
oh, sorry, it's mandrake 10.0....ill try that tho
|
ok just installed all of the development programs and this is the message that i get:

try this command
Code:
whereis gcc if it is installed, I am stumped to why it would not be finding it. |
nm, apparently i didn't install all of the programs, including the gcc ones. But now it's aksing for disk 4 to install these programs, and mandrake only gave me three??
