I got a c compiler downloaded in rpm format and installed, but I still couldn’t install the software. wtf is up with that?

my work computer is still MIA, although not for much longer.
on the other hand, I finally have a tentative plan for the kitchen; I’ve gotten back to exercising; I got some digging done in the yard yesterday, and my garden is producing regular lettuce! (the lesson being, I suppose, that the real world is treating me a little better than the virtual one.)
