./configure wouldn't compile HMMER v3.2.1
I tried to compile HMMER v3.2.1 in Cygwin using ./configure followed by make or make install, but failed. I got this config.log file to troubleshoot and I suspect the solution is in this line: configure:2908: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATHWhat does it mean? Is it really all I need to address? I followed the installation steps in this document.

With
cygwinyou are going to run into issues of one sort or the other. I assume you are not a cygwin exprt since you posted this question. It looks like you are missing GNU C compiler or it is not in your$PATH.If you are using Windows 10 then the preferred option is to install WSL (Windows subsystem for Linux) following the directions here. Multiple distros are available but you should use Ubuntu.
