The package you're looking for is confusingly named gcc-c++
.
instead of g++ you have to write gcc-c++
sudo dnf install gcc-c++
You should exec:
dnf install gcc-c++
I had the same problem. At least I could solve it with this:
sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++
Hope it solves your problem too.
try
sudo dnf update
and then
sudo dnf install gcc-c++
Since Fedora 22 yum has been deprecated so the commands given in other answers will actually fire up 'Dandified yum' i.e. dnf
. So the new command to install g++ in recent distributions is
su -c "dnf install gcc-c++"
As of Nov 2015 this installs the 5.1.1 version.
Also note that in Fedora 23 when I gave the command g++ -v
, Fedora automatically asked me if I want to install gcc-c++ package. I think thats nice.(After the install it also ran the command g++ -v
for me)
Only nit pick that I can do about it is that instead of a progress indicator you just get * Downloading packages...
message which you may not like if you are on a slow internet connection.
Run the command bellow in a terminal emulator:
sudo dnf install gcc-c++
Enter password and that's it...
Just make a sample 'Hello World' Program and try to compile it using "g++ sam.cpp" in terminal, and it will ask you if you wish to download the g++ package. Press y to install.
In the newer distribution you can just type command as blow
su root
dnf update
dnf install gcc-c++
