Installing the GNU C compiler and GNU C++ compiler

To install the gcc and g++ compilers, you will need the build-essential package.

This will also install GNU make

Note that GNU's Java compiler is not the same as the one developed and distributed by Sun Microsystems, and will not provide Java to the firefox browser. For that, please see ["Java"]. To install gcj, the GNU Java compiler, install the following package: gcj.

gcj can be used to:

  1. compile .java files to bytecode (.class files)
  2. compile .java files to a linux-executable

To install the GNU Java bytecode interpreter, you need the gij package.

To have gcj compile to executables, install libgcj6-dev (otherwise an error during compilation occurs: libgcj.spec: No such file or directory). Use synaptic to install libgcj6-dev.

Installing the GNU Fortran compilers

To install the GNU Fortran 77 compiler - g77, you need the g77 package.

To install the GNU Fortran 95 compiler - gfortran, the package is: gfortran.

Installing the GNU autotools

To install autoconf and automake, you need the autoconf automake packages.

Apt-get will tell you to explicitly choose a version of automake. If, for example, you decide to use automake1.9, you need to specify the version, such as the automake1.9 package.
