$ g++ --version
bash: g++: command not found

 but I definitely have a c++ compiler installed

$ which cpp
/usr/bin/cpp

$ cpp --version
cpp (Debian 4.3.4-6) 4.3.4

$ ls -l /usr/bin/cpp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Nov  5  2009 /usr/bin/cpp -> cpp-4.3

$ ls -l /usr/bin/cpp-4.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 214024 Nov  2  2009 /usr/bin/cpp-4.3

 so what should I do?

 thank you
