I don't currently have gcc on the server, but it turns out that most of the packages in my vps were corrupted. It was just recently setup, and the tool used to setup the vps had something wrong with it, so the server is being re-imaged.

I'll give pygopherd another shot when the server gets up and running again. Thank you very much for the help!
