you're using the wrong binary to compile c++ applications. while gcc-3.0 CAN do it, when given the necessary options, g++-3.0 will do that automatically. you're probably missing the g++-3.0 package however, as dpkg -S cc1plus gives me [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S cc1plus g++-2.95: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/cc1plus g++-3.0: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/3.0/cc1plus > > Now, this seems a debian-specific problem to me. no. you just need the c++ compiler. you don't actually NEED g++ and cc1plus to compile c applications, so gcc doesn't include them, just like you don't get gcj or any of the other compilers with the gcc package, they're separate. > > I repeat, I got this gcc-3.0 during an update/upgrade and auditing the > packages gives me a clean bill of health.

(it's a bot). don't forget apt-cache search <keyword> either.
