C compiler errors

Hi all,

I'm new to the linux world, I only installed kubuntu 2 weeks ago after years of windows driving me up the wall. I'm having problems with ./configure to compile downloaded programs to install. The error message i get is,

configure:2848: error: C compiler cannot create executables

I've pasted a copy of the config.log

Please help

shaun

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure

RE: C compiler errors

Do you have a C compiler, like GCC, installed?

RE: C compiler errors

Hi all,

I've solved this problem first, I went to this site

http://people.fruitsalad.org/adridg/bobu…to-Kueglix.html

and in konsole entered

"sudo apt-get build-dep kdelibs"

to get the build-essential package.

I then had a problem with the headers so went to this site

http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/l…/kdelibs4-devin

I installed "kdelibs4-dev" in Adept problem solved works fine now
