Not able to Compile !!!

[Extreme_Coder]

I am getting the following error, when I tried to compile simple Hello World Program using cc or gcc.

/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory

Have you installed the build-essential package?

[Extreme_Coder]

What are those build packages ?

[toojays]

There is a package called "build-essential", which installs the minimum necessary packages to compile programs. Just having gcc installed is not enough, you need some development libraries.
