Using cc results in an error

Question

I had been using the command cc to compile the C programs that I write. Recently, I installed drush and removed it again (right now, I am using a site local drush). After that, when I am trying to compile a C program using cc, I am getting this :

The program 'drush' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt install drush

I tried :

update-alternatives --config

But it says :

There is only one alternative in link group cc (providing /usr/bin/cc): /usr/bin/gcc
Nothing to configure.

What is the issue here?

@dlmeetei it says alias cc='drush cache-clear' ( I guess that you have located the issue. How can I fix the alias?) — Joel Joseph Reji, Jul 17 '17 at 17:51
@JoelJosephReji `unalias drush` to get rid of it in current terminal session. Also make sure it's not somewhere aliased in `.bash_aliases` or even `.bashrc` (both text/script files) in your home folder. — Jay, Jul 17 '17 at 17:56
@dlmeetei note: you messed up your backticks. or stackoverflow syntax messed it up. whatever. — Jay, Jul 17 '17 at 17:58

As drush have updated cc as alias cc='drush cache-clear'. We need to map cc to reflect our desired value.

Ubuntu box shows cc as /usr/bin/cc which is symbolic link to /usr/bin/gcc though /etc/alternatives/cc. Hence, it should be safe alias cc to resolve your issue

alias cc=`which gcc`
