It's not the 'F' word is it? ;)

As Phillip mentioned you need to install or have a gcc or cc compiler in  
your path when you do the install. What OS are you using? Most Unix &  
Linux flavors come with a compiler. Is this a new machine or are you  
installing on a machine that RT has been installed on before?

RT has a lot of dependencies on various Perl modules found on CPAN. The  
'make fixdeps' step of the install will download and install them for you.  
You might have to do that multiple times until 'make testdeps' shows that  
there's nothing missing. You don;t need to supply any additional args to  
'make testdeps' and 'make fixdeps'.

Reading through the 'README' and 'README.Oracle' docs that come with the  
software should help you figure all this out.
