Configure error no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH in Linux

You could get following error message “configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH” when you try to compile and install a software from a source. I got above error message once, when I was going to install python 3 on CentOS 7.

Reason for the error is your Linux machine does not have the gcc compiler installed. Install gcc compiler to fix the problem.

How to Install sudo on Debian 8 Linux

In Debian Linux sudo command allows regular users to do administrative tasks as the root user. This way you don’t have to give away the root password, instead others can run administrative commands using their own password.
