Thanks. 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 at blue linux-2.6.7]# rpm -q gcc
gcc-3.3.3-7
]find /usr/include |wc -l
5036
However,
[root at 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?
