I am getting an error when using the gcc compiler saying:
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file. No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Is it a problem with the compiler?
Thanks in advance.

This happens for any c code that i try to compile.
It even occurs for a basic program like displaying "hello" which im sure has no syntax errors in it.
When i compile using the command 'gcc filename.c' it gives the error.
Im using ubuntu 7.10 if that makes a difference.
Ok got a solution to your problem here with just a little googling.
It says to install the libc6-dev package.
Great thanks a lot....
