The program you probably want to look at is called urpmi. It works like this:

urpmi install gcc

Or something to that effect. Mandrake folks, please correct me if my syntax is off. I assume it's similar to apt-get in Debian.

You can look for packages here..

It is urpmi <package name>. So I assume in your case it would be:

urpmi gcc
