I can walk down the street and chew gum at the same time. Your idea of
"super" appears to be derived from a viewpoint where that kind of thing
is the product of years of training yet to come.

Look - the rest of the universe takes it for granted that you can
install software, just as the rest of the universe takes it for granted
that you can chew gum and use a ballpoint pen. We didn't properly
appreciate that you were such a gormless mound of uselessness that all
you can do is call your "supplier" and get their "engineers" to
"rebuild" something [your installation, in all probability] instead of
you clicking on a gcc rpm to install it, or adding in the development
section from your install cds by clicking on "development" in the setup
section of the root install tool. We were dealing with the wrong
problem - we told you that all you had to do was what the rest of the
universe does and what we would do, and we didn't realize that you
aren't capable such simple things. That's below the level of my mother.
Even she can click on the icons.

Uh, if you can't install gcc from an rpm, or even FIND gcc in rpm, then
you are somewhere on the mullusc scale of evolution as regards PCs. If
you think that it takes people who spend all day at their PC to do such
an utterly trivial thing for you, then you REALLY have a problem!

I do mathematical logic for a living. What do you do? Care to share a
groovy Kripke structure with me? I'm all up for a parameterised
branching universe or two.

When installing RHEL 3, part way through, all you need to do is check the
box that says to install the compilation and development packages. It does
not take a superior human being like Peter; even I have done it, many times,
back since Red Hat Linux 5.0 days (1998?).
