gcc library installed not found
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I get the above error when trying to configure xine. I know that all the c++ libraries are installed because I just installed suse and ran the update packages right after the install, and if I check in Yast for glibc, gcc etc packages it says they are there, and yet I get this message. I would try to find out where they are and put that in the $PATH, but I get the error: . something changed during find and it stops here is my $PATH info PATH=/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin Any help would be great thanks |
"configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH"
Some configure scripts refer to the C compiler as cc. Check the error messages ahead of the one you posted to see if cc is what is missing. If that is the problem then make a symbolic link from cc to gcc. You can find out where gcc is with: which gcc On my machine gcc is in /usr/bin so I would add cc with this command: ln -s gcc /usr/bin/cc ------------------------------ Steve Stites |
Well, it is actually looking for either and it finds neither gcc nor cc. I used the find files in the menu, don't know why I didn't think of that before, and searched for gcc throughout the partition. It didn't find it anywhere. I guess I could get the rpm and manually install it, but I don't understand why Yast would say I have and it and pretend to install it if I don't. Any thoughts?
I hate to have to install all the packages manually, but will if I have to. thanks |
" I don't understand why Yast would say I have and it and pretend to install it if I don't."
I don't know what the problem with YaST might be. You can check to see what packages you have installed with: rpm -qa | sort | less and gcc in particular: rpm -qi gcc | less If rpm shows that gcc is installed then also run: which gcc to see if the compiler executable actually exists. ------------------------------- Steve Stites |
Those queries don't find gcc so it must not be installed. Glibc is. It looks like Yast is not perfect, but who is I guess. Thanks for the help. i will just download the individual rpms.
