Compiling software - openSUSE
I installed only gcc43-c+++. The instructions said to run make, and im totally confused
Next you run make. This will build the program and when it is done you already might be able to run it. Look where it is and you can already try it with ./program-name or src/program-name or wherever is is placed inside the directory. Compiling can be very fast or very long depending of the size of the application.
source file is located in
/home/k3ntegra/Downloads/abx-1.0.1/src

devel packages?
You need the relevant devel packages, 9/10 when it says you haven’t got *** you need ***-devel
