[Vm-dev] [interrogative] CryptographyPlugins-eem.14

[Robert]

Alright, now, I found these Crypto plugins. They are in src/plugins/! I 
added them to the plugins.ext, in build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur, then 
ran ./build/mvm. The result is some error with the c compiler on my 
Ubuntu 18.04. Here tis:

quotar at ganymede:~/tribe/opensmalltalk-vm/build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur/build$ 
./mvm
clean? y
/home/quotar/tribe/opensmalltalk-vm/spur64src
/home/quotar/tribe/opensmalltalk-vm/src/plugins
checking sanity of generated src directory... okay
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

Configuring Squeak  (.-) for x86_64-linux-gnu

checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gcc... clang
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in 
`/home/quotar/tribe/opensmalltalk-vm/build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur/build':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details

Grateful for assistance.
