Hi,

This means there is no C compiler found on the system. You would need to install the gcc compiler collection and other development tools if they are not on your system. Its difficult to be more precise without knowing what distrubtion / version of linux you are using. The gcc home page is at -->

http://gcc.gnu.org/

and an example download mirror for the latest gcc is --> ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gcc/gcc-3.0.2/ . If you have a rpm-based distro (redhat, mandrake, suse, caldera, etc) its probably best to use the rpms compiled for that distro.

Hope this helps
