Help installing gcc

[Josie Ellis]

Hello gcc helpers,

I have installed cygwin on my laptop computer, which runs Windows 98.

I have downloaded all of the necessary files to install gcc, and put them 
in a folder C:/gcc-3.2.2

I have made another folder called C:/gcc-objdir

And then I went to that directory and typed C:/gcc-3.2.2/configure

And the following error message appeared:

sed: not found

I have no idea what that means and therefore do not know how to 
successfully configure and ultimately install gcc.  Any help you can offer 
would be very much appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,

Josie Ellis

Hi Andrew,

Why not type "gcc" and then the "return" key when you're in a terminal
window?  I always run gcc from a command line.   So to compile a program
named "helloworld.c," I'd type "gcc helloworld.c" and press the "return"
key.

Cheers,
Bill

First try

$ gcc --version

It should print out something like

gcc (Debian 4.4.2-8) 4.4.2
Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.  There is NO
warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Then use your favorite editor to edit a file named hello.c

$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main ()
{
   printf ("Hello GCC!\n");
   return 0;
}

Compile it to an executable using GCC:

$ gcc -o hello hello.c

Run the executable:

$ ./hello
Hello GCC!

Finally you can further read GCC manual:

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.4.2/gcc/

Hi.

I'm trying to install GCC on my Kubuntu system.

I downloaded it through the software manager and ran a .deb file.

I believe that it is installed, but I don't know how to run it.

I have the 4.4.2 version.


Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I am trying to install the gcc compiler on three old macs using
os10.1.15. The computers are not connected to the internet so I need to know
how to put them on a disk and what to do to install it on the computers.
Thank you very much.

I came up with the same problem when I installed
Fedora  core 3. You need to install the RPM of GCC by
yourself, then. It is on Disk 3 or 4. (I can not
remember clearly the exact disk number). Just go
through the RPM directory and you will find gcc-3.4.x.
You need to be a root to install the RPM.

I'm new to Linux, and i'm using Fedora Core 3. I'm trying to install
the latest NVIDIA drivers for my system, but when I do, it says that
it needs to compile something, but gcc is either not installed, or not
in the path. I've searched around the forums to get some help with
this, but I can't find anything that applies, or i'm too new and
stupid to understand what they are talking about..  if you could give
me some instructions i would appreciate it...

Hi,

at first, I think this is a bit off topic here, since you're asking how to
install software provided by sunfreeware.com and you should have asked there
if you didn't understand or just haven't read the instructions.

<quote src="http://www.sunfreeware.com/sol26left2.html"> 
To install a file you have downloaded, follow the example here: For
example, if you were to download a gzipped package
foo-1.00-sol8-sparc-local.gz into directory /tmp, to install this package,
you would use the following commands:

cd /tmp
gunzip foo-1.00-sol8-sparc-local.gz
pkgadd -d foo-1.00-sol8-sparc-local

The pkgadd command must be run as root. Do NOT put a ., ./, or the directory
name in front of the file name in pkgadd!  
</quote>

Also make sure that you read the comments on the GCC 3.4.2 package here:
http://www.sunfreeware.com/gcc.html

Especially the first paragraph:

<quote>
To use the gcc package from sunfreeware.com you MUST install all of the SUNW
deveoper packages that come on Sun's Solaris CDs.

I am a real newbie to the UNIX world.  I am presently trying to get BIND
9.3.0 installed on an Ultra 5 box with Solaris 9.  I am getting an error
about, "compiler cannot create executables".  From what I am reading it
sounds like I need a compiler installed on Solaris.  I downloaded
gcc_small-3.4.2-sol9-sparc-local.gz and unzipped it.  I now have an
executable named gcc_smal and I don't know what to do with it.  I will
appreciate any advice on where to go from here!

Hi Ellis,

It seems you have not installed cygwin completely. When you run the cygwin setup program it pops up a small dialog box which will show GROUPS of utilities. You need to expand the groups and make sure the utilities you are looking for are checked. The default settings only install some utils. I generally expand each group and check everything so that i can have the complete set of utilities.

Hi,

  "sed" stands for "stream editor". It is mainly used for filtering the
text.
GCC uses AWK and sed when installing. It is by default installed with Linux.
I don't know whether they are part of Cygwin environment. Don't hesitate to
install these packages in your environment. You would get them for free.

Before installing sed, please check if it is already available to you.
It may just not be included in your path. In my system, it is in /bin
directory.

Regards
Rakesh Kumar
