noob wants to get gcc
hello, I would like to get GNU C Compiler for my Archlinux, but I didn't get a C compiler with my install (not that I can find anyways) and gcc will want me to build from source, which I obviously can't do. thoughts?

Re: noob wants to get gcc
or you can also install the base-devel group which will give you anything you need to build packages
# pacman -S base-devel

Re: noob wants to get gcc
