The gnu C compiler is not installed correctly on your computer. It's
unable to find the C preprocessor (cpp), the first phase of the actual
compiler. The most likely explanation is that the compiler wasn't
installed properly. Maybe gcc - the program that drives the
compilation - was just copied from some other computer and the actual
compiler executables were left untouched. It's also possible, but
unlikely, that gcc thinks the compiler executables live in a different
directory from where they've actually been installed. This shouldn't
happen. Check the gcc configuration and installation.
