Have libstdc++.so.6 - install complains missing libstdc++.so.5 ?

[eesutton]

Do I really need to go back to using libstdc++.so.5 or is there some way I can have both?

I have:

g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-42)

Thanks in advance,

Sorry if posted twice. First time I thought I did a Preview and saw no way of submitting from preview.

Hi Ed,

The next release (12.0) of the compiler should work fine with libstdc++.so.6 but for now you'll still need the .so.5 version. Please refer to the same question discussed in this thread http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/showthread.php?t=78226

Ron's instructions on Fedora installation of 11.1 compilers may be more helpful, in case you don't want to sort out the total changes of subject on that thread. Yes, both the old and new stdc++ shared objects will coexist.

Thanks I figured it out.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 with gcc/c++ 4.1.2 installed, all I had to do was install compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3 RPM from the RedHat install disk and the ICC compiler install was happy. The compat-libstdc++-33 package contains "/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5" and "/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7".

Thanks for the links!
