To all,
I'm trying to install K3b cd burning software. I'm use Ferdora Core 6
OS. The error it gives is �no C compiler in path.� . How can I find were
this �path� is? In DOS it was in the Autoexec.bat file.
In Linux I have no idea. This has come up in the past. I have always
found a work around. It has happen to many times now I want to know
where the file is and how to change it.

Thanks in advance for any help.

No need for gcc.
In a console, type:

yum install k3b

You may find the GUI for yum useful.
In a console type:

yum install yumex

then use the "add/remove programs" entry in your menus.

Jesse,

Kind regards,

FC6 is a bit on the old side - but why didn't you install the K3b
package that came with the distribution - or more usefully, the version
on the errata server?

[compton ~]$ zgrep -i k3b rpms.fc6-i386.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 ftp ftp 10210327 Oct 5 2006 k3b-0.12.15-3.1.1.i386.rpm
[compton ~]$ zgrep -i k3b fc6-updates.10.27.07
-rw-r--r-- 1 ftp ftp 11449965 Nov 21 2006 k3b-0.12.17-1.i386.rpm
[compton ~]$

>The error it gives is ?no C compiler in path.? .

You've probably got a lot more errors than that, because you don't have
the needed software development packages installed. The most probable
explanation is that you didn't install the gcc compiler package and it's
support. 'rpm -q gcc' probably turns up empty.

>How can I find were this ?path? is?

[compton ~]$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/ibuprofin/bin
[compton ~]$

Depends on the runlevel you are using. If you are using the text based
login (run-level 3), the PATH is set initially in /bin/login, then
if you are using a Bourne style shell such as bash, the PATH is modified
in /etc/profile and in your own .bash_profile

[compton ~]$ grep PATH /etc/profile
PATH="$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin"
export PATH PS1 HOSTNAME HISTSIZE HISTFILESIZE USER LOGNAME MAIL EDITOR
[compton ~]$ grep PATH .bash_profile
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
export USERNAME BASH_ENV PATH LESSSECURE
[compton ~]$

If you are using some windoze wannabe GUI (run-level 5), the path is set
by the display manager - probably gdm or kdm. See if you can find a file
named .xinitrc or .xsession which MAY be where it sets things. The
locate command should find that file (try 'locate .xinitrc'). I don't
use windoze, so I can't advise there.

In case you aren't aware of the run-level you are using, /sbin/runlevel
will show it - or you can look in the file /etc/inittab to see what the
'si' variable is set to.

It depends on the method of logging in (runlevel), and type of shell
you are using.
