Hi guys.
I want to compile three files:
gcc -static main.c fib.c fib.h
it is pure C i mean i use standard C library.
but it gives me this error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
what should i do?
You probably don't have a static version of your c library installed - confirm by running "whereis libc" (it should show a libc.so, but no libc.a) and search your package manager for "libc.a", "gcc static" or "libc static" for something to install.

It'd help to know the OS, too.
Thank you very much. I found the package. it's name is:
glibc-static
Try:
gcc -static -o fib main.c fib.c fib.h
This will compile an executable "fib"..I assume a Fibonacci example..statically.
