installed now, still have the same problem.
Edit: Weirdest thing in the world- it didn't install it. when i ran aptitude again it gave me this crazy solution to resolve conflicts ( including removing build-essential gcc, g++, gcc 4.4, g++ 4.4, and alot of libs ).
Im not sure how smart it is to accept his solution :)
Edit #2: After upgrading system there was no need for solution. compiler is working now, although i have some linking issues: it complains about alot of unidentified refrences ( both of math.h and objc/Object.h ).
Command i ran: gcc try.o (after running gcc -c try.m successfully )
output:

Niv, It’s the third time you ask an abstract question here. My suggestion to you is before you ask a question. Try making it concrete. Then, when your question is specific google it. Maybe you find that someone already had that problem.
In this case, you could have asked – I am trying to compile software X which is written in objective C.
From that you can see you need an objective-c compiler installed. Also, you see that from the answer you got, no one else can learn because we don’t know what is your problem …
Google didn’t seem to solve my question ( at least not that i saw it ) believe me, if i would’ve asked everything i have problems with without googleing before the servers would’ve been down ;–) I’m not trying to compile a software… just some sample source code. anyways, I’ve added the error output and the files im trying to compile ( although it’s extremely unreadable, plus i can’t use all the graphic ( Bold, italian, ident, whatever ) features of this system for some reason.
