If you don't already have a compiler, you can't compile a compiler :) So you'll have to get a binary, probably your best bet is to install the gcc RPM. There's all sorts of stuff you'll also need, that's really outside the scope of a Mailman mailing list; does RedHat have some sort of dependency checking? You need the compiler plus tools and all that. If I recall correctly it's quite a list of stuff! If your install didn't already have developer tools and a compiler, it's a lot more difficult than choosing the compiler at install time, which will make sure you have everything you need. Maybe there's a Mailman RPM you could use instead of compiling everything, I wonder if anyone on the list has a good source for a Mailman RPM for RH8.0? Regards, -- Simon White.
