Since I had absolutely no luck installing gcc, g++ and make on my system, I decided to try this. I run mydsl-load gnu-utils.dsl and it does seem to load them (the terminal pauses for a minute, and the screen blinks, and then the terminal comes back). I am running it as root, so permissions are not an issue here. The thing is, it doesnt really install anything! Well, at least as far as I can tell. What exactly is this supposed to install? And why would it not be working for me?

If you have a fast system, then I would expect that behavior. It does not place an icon, or menu item. It restores the GNU utiltities, that busybox replaced. Look around in the /bin/ directory to see the results.

It is really quite simple to install gcc, make, etc. Search the forums it has been posted many times. The thing is to change your apt-sources to point to unstable. You did Enable Apt didn't you?

The page should reflect 6.9M , and should have updated nearly immediately.
Refresh your page cache, and see if if changes for you...
Sometimes I use (shift-refresh) to force it to reload.
The true file size should be 7146068 bytes

Thanks for the heads-up JeremyD
