OK I was in the wrong dir According to Package Management I have 5 of 5 of Kernel Development and 49 of 52 of Development Tools. Specifically gcc-lib is in /usr/lib [root@blue linux-2.6.7]# rpm -q gcc gcc-3.3.3-7 ]find /usr/include |wc -l 5036 However, [root@blue linux-2.6.7]# make menuconfig HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep scripts/basic/fixdep.c:97:23: sys/types.h: No such file or directory scripts/basic/fixdep.c:98:22: sys/stat.h: No such file or directory... etc ... What does this tell me? Would there be some other gcc rpm that I should query for? tia k __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
