gcc is the C compiler, gcc-c++ is the C++ compiler Yes, this should be what you want, but try pulling in some commonly needed development tools and prerequisites with this command: yum install build-essentials When you build, and find it can't find certain libraries etc.., it probably means you need to install the "-dev" or "-devel" versions of those library packages. PS.. gcc-gfortran is the Fortran compiler gcc-gnat is the Ada compiler gcc-java is the Java compiler gcc-objc is the Objective C compiler gcc-objc++ is the Objective C++ compiler None of those languages are used in the gEDA suite (as far as I know).
