yes, I see it's is a very, very strange thing! How did I do that?! Well, I just got this distribution from 03 CD's that came with the PCMaster magazine (a brazilian magazine) about 03 months ago. I just boot from CD 01 and followed installation steps. After some clicks; choosing keyboard, mouse, video etc, I got linux running in front of me.That's all I did, nothing more!!! After that, when I tried gcc to compile the simple "hello, world!" program, I got a series of errors messages saying, basically, I have no stdio.h, features.h etc. with definitions such printf..... As I said before, I can't found such headers files using mc in stdandard place as /usr/include and nowhere. mc just found a half dozen of header files (*.h) in other nonstandard places, but none of them was stdio.h, features.h and other essential headers files. I also tried apt-get install glibc using suchs CD's and system says I already have last glibc version installed! So gcc was installed among the system without (apparently) stdio.h, features.h etc be installed in /usr/include, /usr/lib or other standard places. I DID NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE BESIDE JUST INSTALL THE SYSTEM. This is really amazing, since Linux always come with a last version of gcc fully functional. I hope anyone can help me after this explanation! One more thing: besides http://rpmfind.net , where else can I get rpm's of gcc to Conectiva?!
