Hi all,
It took a while from I bought Mandrakelinux 10.0 till I installed it. I
threw out an unstable SUSE 9.1 which caused me a lot of trouble. But now
10.0 is up and running, and works fine.
I wonder if anybody could give me a clue:
I have not succeeded in locating gcc, the Gnu C-compiler.
I do not find it on the CD's , not on the "install software tool", and
"find file" in Konqueror cannot find any reference.
Both SUSE (and my earlier Red Hat 7.2) had gcc installed and ready to run.
Can anyone put me on the right track her, sonve I am new to Mandriva?
Strange. The gcc compiler *should* be on every Mandrake release.
My first advice is to set up online sources for your Mandrake version :
1. go here : http://easyurpmi.zarb.org and follow the instructions very
carefully, clicking on the *proceed* tabs as demanded. And read the advice
about *urpmi.removemedia*. When selecting sources, I'll recommend the
Spanish *rediris* (assuming you are in Norway).
2. When finished, as root run : urpmi gcc
Secondly, because version 10.0 is rather old, it's possible that some of the
mirrors no longer support it. For example, your Norwegian *uninett.no*
doesn't. But you can find gcc for your version here :
ftp://ftp.rediris.es/pub/linux/distributions/mandriva/10.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS

he could also look for it as root and not as a user...
