I have gotten a problem when i was trying to configure LibPcaP 0.6.2 with
the ./configure command on my Red Hat Linux 7.2 OS. It showed me something
like this:Checking for gcc...no
Checking for  cc...no
No acceptable cc found in $Path
But when i was setting the enviroment variable CC like below:
setenv CC /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc

That's the wrong thing to do - "/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc" is the pathname
for Sun's C compiler on Solaris; it is *NOT* the pathname for GCC on
Linux.

The pathname for GCC on Linux is probably "/usr/bin/gcc" *IF* you have
GCC installed.  If you don't have GCC installed, there obviously is no
pathname for it - and, unless you have some other C compiler installed,
you will be unable to compile any C code, such as libpcap, so you should
install GCC first.  There is probably some RPM that comes with RH 7.2
that includes GCC; I don't know what that RPM is (nor do I know how to
find out what it is - when I use Linux, I use Debian), so you'll have to
find that out for yourself.
