Get Text configuration error

[Rob]

Hi,
I am attempting to install Get Text 0.11.5 but have not managed to get
particularly far.  When I run configure I get the following message:

configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH

I am not in the slightest proficient with Linux yet (I have had Redhat
8.0 on my system 4 days now!) and therefore have no idea where to go
from here.

Would you be able to suggest what to do please?  I suspect the solution
is relatively simple, but like I said, I'm pretty clueless.

Full transcript:

address@hidden gettext-0.11.5]$ ./configure
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for mawk... no
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl... no
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
address@hidden gettext-0.11.5]$


Your help would be most appreciated

Regards
