Hi Guys

I downloaded and tried to install courier 0.42.2 from source on my Suse 8.1
system.
I discovered I didn't have a compiler, so installed gcc 3.2 from CD(using
the suse setup software).

I had unzipped as root, so it had to delete what I'd unzipped, logged in as
a standard user, battled with file permissions and then untarred.

When I run ./configure it goes for a long time and then has the following
errors:

Checking for c++ compiler default output
configure: error: C++ compliter cannot create executables.

configure: error: c++ : /bin/sh: /configure failed for module.local
configure: error: c++ : /bin/sh: /configure failed for courier

I was wondering if people could suggest what I should be looking to fix. Is
it a problem with gcc or with courier. I'm thinking with gcc as I didn't
choose anything special with the ./configure. Perhaps I might try installing
something else and see if similar problems arise.

Regards

Rob T
