Issues installing GCC libraries

Issues installing GCC libraries

[Falk, Katerina]

Dear Administrator,

I tried installing GCC libraries, but it does not seem to work. I do not understand the problem why. This is the output from my Terminal window:

1282816:~ kfalk$ cd Desktop/
1282816:Desktop kfalk$ cd gcc-4.8.2/

configure: error: Building GCC requires GMP 4.2+, MPFR 2.4.0+ and MPC 0.8.0+.
Try the --with-gmp, --with-mpfr and/or --with-mpc options to specify
their locations.  Source code for these libraries can be found at
their respective hosting sites as well as at
ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/.  See also
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html for additional info.  If
you obtained GMP, MPFR and/or MPC from a vendor distribution package,
make sure that you have installed both the libraries and the header
files.  They may be located in separate packages.

Is there anything specific I can install like the mentioned GMP, or else?

Many thanks!

Katerina
