title: Error: "linker 'cc' not found" when cross compiling a rust project from windows to linux using cargo
body: <p>I have a basic rust/cargo project with a single main file and some basic dependencies. The <code>cargo build</code> command works fine when the target is not specified (I am using windows so it builds to windows), but when I try to cross compile the program to linux using <code>cargo build --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu</code> or <code>cargo build --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-musl</code>, the process fails with the following error: <code>linker 'cc' not found</code>.</p>
  <p>Does anyone have an idea how to get around this? Is there a specific linker I need to install?</p>
  <p>Thanks.</p>
