Title: C++ compiler
Post by: bzuelly on April 01, 2005, 07:10:46 PM

I just loaded SME 6 and am trying to install moveabletype(weblog software).  It requires some templates that require a c compiler.  How can I check for a c compiler and/or install one?  shouldnt there be a compiler with a basic load of SME?

Thanks

The download locations in the links of William seem to be for releases other than 6.X .

I have the compiler rpm's for SME 6.X available on my own server. If you like you can pick them up here (http://egerards.com/sme/compiler/).

"which cc". But there isn't one installed.

No. Installing a compiler reduces the security of a computer. Worms/viruses sometimes spread by downloading source code and compiling on the box. If there is no compiler, they "die" without spreading.
