There is an area for Workstation Pro, I've reported your post to the moderators so they should move it - the {code} forums are for SDK matters.

At the risk of asking the obvious, did you:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install gcc build-essential

?

Well, I don't know. My host is  Debian 11.5 and after installing gcc 10.2.1 and build-essential, all goes well.

Are you running as root (sudo)?

I am out of ideas.
