GBS IoT.js build fails with cmake error: your C compiler: "arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc" was not found.

I compiled my change for (GPIO)[https://github.com/pmarcinkiew/iotjs/tree/temporary_peripheral_GPIO].

It fails with missing compiler error at basic cmake:

[ 1013s] CMake Error: your C compiler: "arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc" was not found.   Please set CMAKE_C_COMPILER to a valid compiler path or name.

The number of installed GBS packages in environment is smaller but still my GBS fails to compile.

What is your GBS version?

piotr@bpower:~/src/iotjs$ gbs --version
gbs 0.24.6

I use Ubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS:

piotr@bpower:~/src/iotjs$ uname -a

I successfully compiled IoT.js for Tizen IoT using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with the same version of GBS and .gbs.conf from GITHUB. It is not clear that old Ubuntu works better because GBS is simply very indeterministic during compilation of IoT.js with Tizen Unified. I will temporarily close this issue.

We should consider introducing Travis GBS buils with some kind of virtualization to provide stable environment for Tizen IoT development.
