Hi I got wine from Sourceforge and extracted it to a folder. In that folder I open a terminal and want to check dependencies . I get this : fuz@Fuzzy:~/linux saved/wine-0.9.58$ ./configure checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1 checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1 checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. fuz@Fuzzy:~/linux saved/wine-0.9.58$ I managed to compile 0.9.53 in Mepis 6.5 but that might just have been luck :) It is a brand new install of Mepis 7 and I did have to get a few things before I could start so I think I have all the depends but cant use ./configure to find out ! Any ideas ?
