Even though you have the gcc compiler installed, the build-essential metapackage must be installed to compile most software. 

$ gcc test.c
test.c:20:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
test.c:21:19: error: errno.h: No such file or directory
test.c:22:20: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory
test.c:23:20: error: string.h: No such file or directory
test.c:24:20: error: malloc.h: No such file or directory
...

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

$ gcc test.c
