sudo apt-get install g++

Yeah, that was the first thing I tried. It's good to hear that *should* have worked.
I'll take it to the Ubuntu forums as jfroebe has suggested.

This cross-platform clean-install stuff is tricky for Inline::CPP

I've just set up a powerpc64 box running Debian wheezy. It has g++ (version 4.6.3) but Inline::CPP is not building. It might be a PEBKAC - if it turns out to be other than that, you'll here from me ;-)
It was the problem on the deb box that led me to try out Inline::CPP on the Ubuntu machine - whereupon I discovered (to my surprise) that g++ was not installed.

Cheers,
Rob
