Hi Ken,
I am using a UBUNTU 14.04.3 LTS host. Looks like only 64bit. The
minimum requirement for gcc is 4.1.2 with C++. My host has 4.8.4 but I
am not sure about the C++. I can't imagine why the gcc would not
include g++ but if I remember correctly it is possible to leave that
part out. How can I tell? I don't have a problem with a pure 64bit
system as long as all the packages I need have 64bit support. The last
time I built an LFS system that was an issue but it probably isn't any
more. I just tried a "gcc --help"
Why not directly type "g++ --version". If it does not work, it means g++
is not installed (gcc and g++ are independant packages on debian and
ubuntu).
to see if I could find a switch that would dump it's capabilities. If
it is there I don't see it. There is a switch to tell gcc what
language the file is and says one of the legal options is c++ but that
could just be a help file included in all builds. While I was
composing this reply last night on my main Linux workstation the
system stopped talking to my keyboard. I shut everything down and went
to be. This morning after a night's rest it seems to be working fine
but I am now left with a sense of urgency to get a new LFS/BLFS
workstation built.
BTW what does ISTR mean? You use these a lot. Have you ever posted
a guide to let fools like me know what they all mean? :-)
There are a lot of sites about "internet slang". You might want to see
for example
