I just went to install a package from source on my Centos linux virtual machine and got the following error:
$ ./configure
checking for gcc... no
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.No worries, you just need to install a C compiler. First I took a look at what's available via yum:
$ yum list | grep -i ^gcc
gcc.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-c++.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-gfortran.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-gnat.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-java.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-objc.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base
gcc-objc++.i386 4.1.2-42.el5 base And then install one:
sudo yum install gccNow, back to installing my package from source...
