I'm attempting to install tahoe per the instructions here:

http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/trunk/docs/install.html

Following the command:
"python setup.py" run in the top level directory of the freshly unzipped
tahoe source

The I get the following, at the end of the install output:

"""
Running pycryptopp-0.5.15/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir
/tmp/easy_install-p2hE68/pycryptopp-0.5.15/egg-dist-tmp-8gF_HB

darcs failed:  Not a repository: . (./_darcs/inventory: openBinaryFile: does
not exist (No such file or directory))
setup.py darcsver: Failure from attempt to find version tags with 'darcs
changes', and pycryptopp/_version.py already exists, so leaving it alone.
gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory
error: Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status
1"""

Hmmmm...   what's up with gcc?
