Thank you for your rapid answer. I tried to type "urpmi gcc", but the
computer's reply was "command not found". Regrettably, the rest of your
instructions were too advanced to me, I don't know what a "binary package" is
and how it works, the same goes for "GUI package selection tool".
Probably "distro" means "distribution", but what my distribution uses to
install packages I don't know and I don't know how to find out.
From the end of your letter I realize that it will be impossible for me
to install gcc - all that remains is to throw in the towel.
Yours sincerely
