What does this mean?

I tried to install Pixie, a rendering engine for MakeHuman and this came up at the end:

configure: error: in `/home/Fingers/Download/Pixie':
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.

I am very new to linux, and I don't really know any programming outside of HTML and the like. This happened once before on another program, but I can't remember what. I think it was a library package. Anyways, can anyone explain what this means? I am running Fedora 10.

It means that the system can't compile the package unless you install some development tools. Try

su -c 'yum install gcc'

and see if the error goes away. You may also need to install Development Tools.

su -c 'yum groupinstall 'Development Tools''

Sweet, that seemed to work. Unfortunately, the program seems to be missing a file. But, thank you for the help.

You're welcome.

I gather that the program compiled sucessfuly but you are still getting errors?
