WSL installation error: linker `cc` not found
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I am exploring wsl within my windows terminal and have been configuring and ricing it as per usual and wanted to try out zoxide
When I tried to install using
cargo install zoxide --locked
it gave me the following output in the image below:
context:
I ran update/upgrade + rust/cargo updates and they are all up to date. Also provided echo $PATH output
Also did some search here and there and installed build-essential just trying things out and still same error output.
Will be trying it on my linux machine tomorrow, might be a WSL only thing or I am missing something random
apt install build-essential should fix that. Otherwise, you can use the install script given in the README:
curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/main/install.sh | bashI followed all the steps again, and I had to add the PATH using
export PATH="$PATH:/home/mino/.local/bin"
