It is strange that C compiler does not include in the first time installation. I installed solaris 8 and Fedora, red hat, I always get C compiler when I installed the OS and I rarely does not get C compiler.
Only last time, I installed Date::Calc in my FC6 machine, it was asked the newest GCC version. And then I used yum to update the gcc, then the rest worked smoothly.
