I'm installing irssi, a text only IRC chat program on Fedora Core 3.
The INSTALL file says that it needs Glib and my system has it.
The instructions say to:
untar it and the cd to the irssi*** directory.
then ./configure
[snip]
checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no checking for cc... no checking for cl... no configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH See `config.log' for more details.
What instructions don't say, because it is assumed, is that if you want to compile anything, you need to have compiler install. Install gcc package(s) *and* development libraries (if you don't have compiler installed, chances are you don't have devel packages installed either).
