    Installing VLC Problem

    Installing the tar.gz from VLC gets this error when executing ./configure :

    Code:
    checking for gcc... gcc
    checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
    here is the config.log ..

    Code:
    This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
    running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
    
    It was created by vlc configure 0.8.4a, which was
    generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was
    
     $ ./configure

    Re: Installing VLC Problem

    ziller, VLC 0.8.4 is available using apt-get, why don't you just install it that way instead of messing around with the source?
