It fails with the following output:

The C compiler "/usr/bin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test program.

You need to find out why the C compiler in your system is failing to build a test program. You are either attempting to cross-compile somehow by accident, or you don't have the full toolchain installed.

It also looks related to

Detecting C compiler ABI info - failed

Please refer to your distribution's documentation.

have no idea what you are talking about....i am NOT a computer programmer !!

how about putting it in a .deb package for easy installation ?? geez !

Hi from a lurker here.. Hopefully I'm correctly cognitively grasping this conversation. It made me think of LFS (Linux From Scratch) and how they provide a "version-check" with their instructions. A current example can be found in their Host System Requirements script.

Maybe some day something similar could be developed as a wishlist to-do item. Actually, I've already turned to that script as-is while playing around with compiling non-LFS packages here on my own machine. It's pretty complete. So far, it has worked during that type of non-LFS usage. :smile:

NOTE: If and when that document evolves off the Net, its updated version can be found on their /lfs/downloads/development webpage.

@dduran1210 if you're on Ubuntu or an Ubuntu based distro you can use the PPA here https://alarm-clock-applet.github.io/#ubuntu. The instructions for setting it up are on the github pages for this project https://alarm-clock-applet.github.io/#ubuntu

HAZEMATMAN, THANK YOU ! this worked perfect and so much easier to install. Geez can't believe the hassle of trying to install things thru github.
