[OLUG] Make error

[Adam Lassek]

Oh, it's there, it probably wasn't installed is all. The point I'm
making is that the RH gui installer is stupid. Unless you install
everything, it leaves out some /very/ important things, including gcc.
If this truly is your problem, I'd recommend refreshing your
installation with everything, just to be sure. Or you could do it the
hard way.

Hmm, as for which package it's in, I'm not sure. I think it's in the
egcs rpms, but I don't think I've ever hunted it down.
