I'm guessing I'm missing the compiler?

How do I install that without installing thousands of other bits of crap?

What would I be installing?






Hi Don,

To attempt to answer your question, rather than pick at who you're logged in as...

you need to rpm -i a few packages. They are on your install cds, but which one... (:

From fedora, I have...
rpm -aq | egrep 'gcc|auto'  ( and then delete the irrelevant ones :)

compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.118
libgcc-3.3.2-1
gcc32-3.2.3-6
gcc-3.3.2-1
gcc-objc-3.3.2-1
gcc-gnat-3.3.2-1
gcc-java-3.3.2-1
compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.118
compat-gcc-objc-7.3-2.96.118
gcc-c++-3.3.2-1
compat-gcc-g77-7.3-2.96.118
compat-gcc-java-7.3-2.96.118
automake15-1.5-9
autorun-3.11-1
autoconf213-2.13-6
automake-1.7.8-1
automake16-1.6.3-1

You'll find them in the /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS directory on each of the install CD's. If you stuff CD 1 in, then autorun *should* lead you through it all in a pretty easy to follow manner, with the offer to install the 'Develoipment Tools' package.

hth,

Steve
