Some prob here...

apt-get install cpp :

Reading blabla
Building.....
Sorry, cpp is already the newest version.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

But this problem (with installing gaim 0.77):
checking how to run the C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See ' config.log'  for more details.

So I checked config.log for more details... Short output:

configure:3708: result: ok
configure:3717: checking how to run the C preprocessor
configure:3753: gcc -E  conftest.c
In file included from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/include/syslimits.h:7,
                from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/include/limits.h:11,
                from configure:3750:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/include/limits.h:117: limits.h: No such file or directory

Looking closely again at the config.log...
A lot of ' .h'  (header) files seem to be missing...

how do you install those? Any ideas on how to fix this?
