Thank you, Micha} and Magic Banana.

But when I type gcc in Synaptic package manager, I have the following  
packages marked as installed;


gcc-4.6-base (GNU base-package)
gcc-4.8-base (GNU base-package)
gcc-4.9-base (GNU base-package)
libgcc1  (GNU support library)
libgomp1 (GNU GOMP support library)
libquadmath0 (GNU quad-precision math library)
cpp-4.8  (GNU C preprocessor)
cpp  (GNU C preprocessor (cpp))

This is a fresh install, and I have not added/removed any packages. Should I  
select gcc(GNU C compiler) package(shown in figure)?

A bit more explanation is appreciable.

Install build-essential. It depends on GCC so it'll drag GCC into being  
installed as well.

There is a package that is simply named gcc. The first one in your  
screenshot. It depends on the default version of the GNU compiler. But you  
can install another version if you wish. gcc-4.9 for instance.

By the by, where can I find the binary executable of GCC for Trisquel?

I read somewhere that GCC maintainers only hosts the source code, whereby  
individual free software distributions bakes their packages from its flavour.


Does it also depends on processor architecture? (Mine's is i386.)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

/usr/bin/gcc is a symbolic link to the executable of which ever version of  
gcc you have installed.


If you wish to download the whole gcc package you can do so here (for Belenos  
on i386) http://packages.trisquel.info/belenos/i386/gcc/download
