no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I am trying to install Wireshark in Kubuntu,
When I type ./configure
I get the following errors "no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH"
What is the fix?

The usual fix might be to install a C compiler.

GCC would seem to be what it prefers.
It's also possible that you have a C compiler installed, but its main
executable is not on your PATH, but I'd expect that to be less likely.
(And I can't see your PATH from here.)
A Web search for keywords like, say:
Kubuntu C compiler
should find some practical suggestions.

Re: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
Install gcc, or better yet use apt to install the wireshark binary compiled for your system unless you have a specific need to install from source

Re: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
How do I make it so the GCC main executable is in my path?
Your help much appreciated.

_If_ you have installed GCC, then I'd expect it to be in some common
place (like,say, "/usr/bin", "/usr/local/bin", ...), so you wouldn't
need to change your existing PATH to use it.
If it's in some unusual place, and you really did need to add some
new directory to your PATH, then the usual place to do that is a shell
start-up file (like, say, "~/.bashrc", "~/.profile", "~/.cshrc", ...,
depending on which shell you use).
But my guess would be that you have not installed GCC.
All of this is pretty basic stuff for a UNIX(-like) OS, so you would
seem to need to do more reading on the fundamentals.
