I have a copy of Xandros linux os; my free support account has run out;but,in
order to download the c++ compiler package, you have to have active support.
So, if I so much as want to './configure,make,make install', and such,I naturally
get the error message:"could not compile package; no acceptable C compiler
installed. It is a catch-22!!!! If I could find a binary form of the compiler package, then I could make-install packages. PS, I had downloaded the c++,
package several times before, on that system, but I am always reinstalling
the os's; this time, the timing was bad. Unlike windows/dos, linux is very hinky
about installing things that are not in binary form. Thak You--kurt
