you need to install the bundle of developer tools
which includes g++ and the entire make toolchain utils
You do, but you don't have it installed correctly.
First run
which g++
-- it's likely that yourPATH
is pointing at something other than/usr/bin/g++
, and that version is not properly installed.I tried the command @MonoThreaded gave but it failed. I tried below and it works.
sudo apt-get install g++
Please don't include any version after the
g++
.I have g++ and gcc installed.
Gave me something like
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/<version>/cc1plus
So I added it to the $PATH
I faced the same issue after upgrading gcc to 4.8
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8
(mind the package name)Then I manually changed the g++ link to a renamed copy of gcc-4.8
My fix was a proper g++ installation
sudo apt-get install g++-4.8
For clarity you should use
g++-4.8
instead ofgcc-4.8
