Description walter.shands 1999-01-25 18:37:13 UTC

gcc seems to have been installed when I installed Linux (I
installed a server.)  However I cannot find the C++ header
files (e.g. iostream.h).  I tried to install gcc-2.7.2.3-
14.src.rpm, and it seemed to install correctly, but this
did not help.  I ran rpm -qip gcc... and the information
said gcc-2.... was not installed.  I tried to uninstall gcc-
2... but rpm said it wasn't installed.

What can I do to enable C++ compiler support?

Thanks,
Walter Shands

Install egcs-* rpm's. gcc is distributed in order to build 2.0.x
kernels correctly. Use EGCS for cc/c++/f77 compilations.
