Greetings
I have recently learned how to use tar.
I can get as far as the configure command with non dsl extensions without getting errors. The error I get with wine, polypaudio, webcam drivers, webcamgui, sane, etc. are the same. I feel this indicates something I am doing wrong here is the error

configure: error: no acceptable C comiler found in $PATH

any clear advice will be welcomed, also if that is unavailable a good howto link would be appreciated.

ps
any info on how to delete multiple mydsl right click menu pull down entries on a succesful/stable hd install would be appreciated.

This looks like you need a compiler (like the error states.) There is a gcc compiler in the myDSL repository in System. You will need this to try to configure/make/install.

DSL doesn't come standard with a compiler.

Sorry didn't know about tcc... My fault.....

o rly?

Code Sample

#include <tcclib.h>
int main()
{
printf("hello world!\n");
return 0;
}

save as hw.c and do

Code Sample

tcc hw.c -o hw.bin

tcc is a very small ANSI C compiler, and it works quite well.

configure got a lot further this time new error though

code:
configure: error:
Library requirments(samplerate >=0.1.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variables if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

Thanks for the tips!

DSL doesn't have the headers needed to compile most complex programs. You'll find you'll need to install a LOT of libs and includes before being able to compile much. In this case, libsamplerate is needed...when that's installed it will move on to the next dependency and give you an error about that one =o)
