On Thu, Jan 12, 2006 at 12:42:39AM -0800, Robert Hanson enlightened us:
is there a single command to get *ALL* the DEVEL stuff meaning compilers and libs and whatever on the box in "one fell swoop"
As was previously mentioned, gcc is part of the Development Tools group. As such:
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
should take care of your one fell swoop requirement :-)
