SuperKaramba install problem on KDE 3.2

Hi, I've always been a big fan of gDesklets (nightmare on Slack 9.1) but I have recently moved to SuSE 9.1 and am now using KDE 3.2

From reading the forums on here I discovered that the nearest thing for KDE is SuperKaramba, but I'm having problems installing it.

When I've unzipped it to a directory and run "./configure" I get:

Code:

linux:/home/Morrolan/superkaramba-0.34 # ./configure

checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu

checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu

checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

checking for -p flag to install... yes

checking whether build environment is sane... yes

checking for gawk... gawk

checking for style of include used by make... none

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

See `config.log' for more details.

linux:/home/Morrolan/superkaramba-0.34 #

How can I check what C compiler is installed, and how can I add it to my $PATH?

Thanks in advance

You need to install the developer tools using YaST.

I've been looking through YAST trying to figure out how, I can see the list of packages, but I can't find the developer tools etc.

I've gone into "Install and Remove Software" and I can see the package lists, but I can't see what I need.

Is there a specific place I should be looking?

I'm using the downloaded version of SuSE 9.1 btw, if that makes any difference.

OK I've figured out why I( can't find what I'm looking for - SuSE 9.1 Personal doesn't come with a C compiler, only the professional version does :mad:

So I went to ftp.suse.com and downloaded the gcc rpm and it's dependents (glibc-devel) and installed them using YaST with no problems, and now when I run ./configure for SuperKaramba it gets past the point where it is asking for gcc, and now it produces an error like so:

Obviously X is installed and working fine, but this has completely stumped me - I have no idea what is it asking of me now.
