[aclug-L] C compiler for Linux - building pine

["Carl B. Davis" <cdavis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to build Pine 4.10 on my Linux.  During the build I get a
series of errors that indicate I don't have a C compiler installed.  I
have Redhat 5.2 and installed gcc (a GNU compiler) from RPM off the
disk.  I tried to run the build again and get the same messages.  

Is there another compiler, library or something that I need to add?  Am
I right in thinking that Gcc is a C compiler that should run the build
for Pine 4.10?  Is there a FAQ, How-To or resource on compiling programs
that I should turn to?

The reply I got from the Pine list essentially was that it's probably
over your head and you should have an expert do it.  I don't accept
that. 

Thanks for any suggestions.
