Wait. You've already got exactly the right file - the numbers after the ".so" extension are just the version number, and 5.0.0 *is* version 5. I now suspect that it's simply in the wrong directory, and 'ld' can't find it. If libstdc++.so.5 isn't in /lib or /usr/lib (where it is on my machine) you'll need to add the directory that it is in to "/etc/ld.so.conf" (and then possibily run 'ldconfig' to update ld.so.cache :) Tim Wright Assistant Lecturer Department of Computer Science University of Canterbury http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~tnw13
