Thanks for your quick reply. I will ask the gcc-help people.

it needs an existing C compiler, what do
which cc
and
which gcc
tell you?
However, I don't see how this will help you, gettext should be available
on your distribution anyway.
Oh, and this is the wrong place to ask, gcc-help is the right place.

Thanks for your very quick reply. I will ask the SuSe guys, I think the OS
should come at least with the basic c compiler.
In this case it has become a circular problem. The installation notes say
that the prerequisite to have NNLS is gettext and gcc, gcc's prerequisite is
the ANSI C compiler for Linux but both are missing from the OS.
Any way Thanks a lot.

cc is the general name by which a c compiler is called. The simplest way
to build gcc is simply to install gcc. However this creates a cirular
problem in your case! Suse (along with I hope every linux distribution)
comes with a gcc package. Look in your distributions instructions on how
to install packages which come with it, and install gcc from there.

Hello,
I am a developer at Xerox. I am working on Novell team. Since Novell has
moved to SuSe Linux so I installed the same to one of my machine. It seems
that to install NNLS(Novell Nterprize Linux Services), we need gettext and
to have gettext we need gcc. I installed the latest source of gcc from your
site but it's pre-requisite is "cc", which was not at all installed with the
OS. I searched the whole internet and the CD's I got but could not find c
compiler "cc" for linux.
Can anybody help to find out how I can build gcc. I downloaded gcc-3.4.3
which I think is the latest of GNU compiler.
Thanks/Regards
