code lab - 'Getting started with Go' - step5 - plz run failed as no cc executable installed #3532

Description

@bradmallan

Ref: Step 5

When I attempted to plz run, for my Linux distro, I had to install build-essential because cc was not available.

sudo apt install build-essential

Suggest: Add a pre-requisite to perform a which cc and include instructions to remediate.

Gemini offered this guidance:

On Ubuntu/Debian:
Run: sudo apt update && sudo apt install build-essential

On Fedora/RHEL:
Run: sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"

On macOS:
Run: xcode-select --install
