Hello,
yes, I did report that on 02/09/2013 when trying to build CLFS for ALPHA:
5.8. GMP-5.0.5
--------------
On my machine (rather fresh Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit) the build resulted
in the following error:
configure error: checking C++ compiler g++ -fexceptions ... no
I had to additionally install g++ (besides plain gcc, which was already
installed,
I think) on my machine , to resolve that, hence my proposal to test for g++
in 'version-check.sh' in chapter "iv. Host System Requirements".
In response to my email you proposed to run:
sudo apt-get install build-essential bison texinfo gawk && sudo
dpkg-reconfigure dash
upfront to starting the build, which my be worth mentioning in the book.
Greetings, Karin

Greetings,
I've had someone tell me that maybe the book needs to mention g++
should be installed on the host as well. I've never ran into a
situation where the host didn't install g++ along with gcc. Are there
hosts out there that do? Even with a default install?
I think the first package that would use g++ for the build would be
file in cross-tools.
Sincerely,
WIlliam Harrington
