Hi, thanks for the replies!

I messed about with about every combination of package installaions I could manage, but it still wouldn't work!

I reinstalled over '/' with i586 rather than x86_64 and it worked - well it overcame the original problem I had at least (still wouldn't compile completely, but that's a story for another day!).

Phew, this learning curve is steep :D

Even so, in the past few days I've gone from being a complete Linux newbie, to having a sweet looking KDE system with faster stats than I ever had before, and I've helped a friend get Mandriva running too!

I'm trying to compile Superkaramba from source as I can't find an rpm for x86_64, however, after typing ./configure, after a while, I get:

Qt (>= Qt 3.3) (library qt-mt) not found

Now, I have installed (uninstalled and installed again) all the qt packages that make sense (screenshot below), but I still can't get it to configure past checking for Qt.

$ whereis qt gives me: /usr/share/man/man3/qt.3qt.bz2

$ qt gives me: bash: qt: command not found

Anybody able to help?

I've just figured this out -

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World From About\n";
}

I needed the 'namespace'.

How embarrasing.

Sorry.

Hi.

When I try compiling the following source using g++:

#include <iostream>
 int main()
   {
   cout << "Hello, World\n";
   return -1;
   }

I get:

hello.cc: In function `int main()':

hello.cc:4: error: `cout' undeclared (first use this function)

hello.cc:4: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)

Can anyone help me fix this?

OK - thanks for all your help!

Cool - that worked for my .c hello world, but for a .cc one that looks like this:

#include <iostream>
 int main()
   {
   cout << "Hello, World\n";
   return -1;
   }

I get:

error: `cout' undeclared (first use this function)

error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)

I promise, I'll run out of problems soon. B)

Woohoo! GCC and CC work...

Though when I try compiling something with

#include <iostream.h>

I get the following error message:

test.c:1:20: iostream: No such file or directory

Should it do that? How can I fix it?

The mystery unravels - thanks for your time :D

I can only find one CD iso for the x86_64 version, and Easy Urpmi only gives me two sources (free/non-free plf) for packages when I specify AMD64.

I have had problems with Python in Superkaramba too, so I'm thinking I might have munged everything...

Would you recommend downloading the i586 DVD and starting from scratch?

If so, how would I do this, and could I salvage anything (like my amaroK database and stuff)?

I have searched again (using Find File) after turning off my machine for the evening, and - joy of joys - the file exists! :D

It's in:

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/3.3.4

I still get "cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory" though, so now I assume it's a $PATH thing?

Now what?!

Thanks for the replies.

I installed the packages you have suggested (gcc-cpp, libgcc1 and prcl-tools) but I still get the same message when trying to compile using gcc.

I also searched my hard disk for cc1, but this failed to find anything.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I have recently installed Mandriva Limited Edition 2005 for AMD64 and I have been unable to use GCC/CC to compile even a simple hello world example in C.

I installed GCC using #rpmi gcc in a Konsole and currently have the following packages:

gcc-3.4.3-7mdk

gcc-c++-3.4.3-7mdk

gcc-cpp-3.4.3-7mdk

When trying to configure packages, or even with a simple hello world .c file

using this line:

#gcc -otest test.c

I receive the following error:

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory

I have seen similar problems in other threads, but they don't seem to have been solved - this is driving me mad, any help would be greatly appreciated.
