Dear all,
I need a c compiler (gcc or cc) because I am going to use the bcm2835 library in order to use my relay HAT and program for it in Python3.
I followed instructions as per:
www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/index.html

Apparently the c compiler is not included in Stellarmate 1.5.4
How to obtain the compiler?
Thanks

I take it you have the compiler now.

You may also want to install synaptic ( sudo apt install synaptic ). Allows you to easily browse, search and install all the available software without having to do it from the command line.
