Because every Linux vendor has a gcc-package... you don't need to
compile it from scratch (except for LFS and gentoo :) ).

Yep, that's the correct way.

html images?  Do you mean images inside html?  This should work with
emacs-w3m -- except that you may need to tell this to w3m explicitly:
`w3m-default-display-inline-images' or press 'T' after it has started.
If you mean multipart/mime, then you have to go a different way --
this isn't handled through w3m.  Also, gnus does like text/plain more
than text/html. So if an email contains both, you should think about
that, too.
