Help with $path
I just installed solaris last night after never using any linux based system in my life. My problem is that i'm trying to install GNU nano, and when I try to do a "# ./configure", I get: "configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH"

So after i soon find out that I have no gcc compiler and make is not installed. So i followed someones online instructions and figured out how to install gcc and make. Tried to install nano again and got the same error. So i found out about this "echo $root command and tried that and I get a blank line.
I then did a "# find / -name gcc" and got.


/usr/sfw/lib/gcc
/usr/sfw/bin/gcc
/usr/sfw/libexec/gcc
/usr/local/doc/gcc
/usr/local/bin/gcc
/usr/local/lib/gcc
/usr/local/libexec/gcc


I don't know what to do now. I understand that I need to have these directories as my $root, but I can't seem to figure out how. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

hardened-ld

HARDENED-LD(1)							 Debian GNU/Linux						    HARDENED-LD(1)

NAME

       hardened-ld - linker wrapper to enforce hardening toolchain improvements

SYNOPSIS

       export DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1

       ld ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  hardened-ld  wrapper  is  normally	used  by  calling  ld  as usual with DEB_BUILD_HARDENING set to 1. It will configure the necessary
       toolchain hardening features. By default, all features are enabled. If a given feature does not work correctly and needs  to  be  disabled,
       the corresponding environment variables mentioned below can be set to 0.

ENVIRONMENT

       DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1
	      Enable hardening features.

       DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_DEBUG=1
	      Print the full resulting gcc command line to STDERR before calling gcc.

       DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_RELRO=0
	      Don't mark ELF sections read-only after start. See README.Debian for details.

       DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_BINDNOW=0
	      Don't mark ELF loader for start-up dynamic resolution. See README.Debian for details.

NOTES

       System-wide settings can be added to /etc/hardening-wrapper.conf, one per line.

       The  real  ld is renamed ld.real, and a diversion is registered with dpkg-divert(1).  Thus hardened-ld's idea of the default ld is dictated
       by whatever package installed /usr/bin/ld.
