How to install Tarballs in Ubuntu 8.04?

DeSmOnD dAvId · 24-11-2008, 12:34 PM

In Ubuntu, whenever I run the Config shell script which comes with any .tar.gz or .tar.bz, it shows that it gcc cannot compile programs. I heard that the gcc compiler is on the Ubuntu disc, but not installed by default. How can I install it?

sudo apt-get install build-essential

put your cd as resource

Resource or Source?

OR install it from the net repo, something like -> sudo apt-get install gcc. If its a part of another package, install it too. Try a search -> apt-cache policy gcc
