I think I found gcc at /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux/2.95.3/

my path is
/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

I tried making a link in /usr/bin to /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux/2.95.3/cpp..named it cpp and gcc and still didn't work..please help

Type whereis gcc at the prompt. It will give you all the places where gcc is.

C and C++ may not be installed. When I installed Mandrake 7.2 it didn't install C and C++ but it did install CPP, which is a pre-compiler. At / type:

find . -name gcc.* -print

if you don't get anything, then the Gnu C compilier isn't on your system and since you need C to use C++, then C++ isn't on it either. I found C and C++ on the second CD in the RPM folder.

Yeah thanks I've already dug it up..there alto of interesting stuff to be found in the RMPS dir of those CDs
