Actually, gcc280b.zip just contains the compiler executables. The
libraries are machine-specific and must be created individually for each
type of computer on which they are used. DJGPP's libraries are in the
'djdev201.zip' package. Since you are capable of running the rest of
the compiler, I doubt that you haven't installed it.
The most likely reason for getting that error is that you have not
configured your system properly to run DJGPP. The file 'v2/readme.1st'
describes exactly how this should be done, and the DJGPP Frequently
Asked Questions list describes common installation mistakes in chapter
8.1. If you try all of that and still can't get DJGPP to work, please
post a system report as outlined in chapter 6.12 of the FAQ.
See, that wasn't too painful, was it? :-)
