Where is CC and why do my downloads not find it?

[Samuel Morgan <smorgan16@gmail.com>]

Hi-

I recently installed DEBIAN Linux on my 386 PC and then

tried to install an Apache web server, as I have on Mac and

Windows, binary and it asked for a C compiler.  Where do I get,

if I really need, a CC binary pre-built?  Seems a bit like

the chicken and the egg.

Can you help?

Thanks.
