*ubuntu* how can I get g++ pack
Miscellaneous Forums/Linux Discussion/*ubuntu* how can I get g++ pack Its really easy,
1. you could build a symlink from g++ to g++-3.3
2. you download g++ 3.3 via synaptic ;)

how to build the symlink ? I', new to ubuntu
If I remember correctly, open up a console (via Applications > Accessories > Terminal) type in the following and press enter:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++-3.3
You will be asked for your password since this is a system-wide change.
To explain what is happening here - the "ln" command creates a link from one file to another, in this case it creates a new file called "g++-3.3" which links to "g++". The "sudo" part is needed because you don't normally have permission to modify anything outside of your personal files.
As an aside, unless there is a really good reason why BlitzMAX needs g++ version 3.3, it would be good if the dependancy was dropped.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++-3.3

after reading the howto for bmax
I decide to download the package I need because I did't have them and I don't have internet connection because I'm on ppp and linux does't support it
libwxgtk2.6-dev_2.6.3.2.1.5_i386.deb
libxxf86vm-dev_1.0.1-1_i386.deb
xlibmesa-gl-dev_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_i386.deb
xlibmesa-glu-dev_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_i386.deb
xlibs-dev_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_all.deb
the problem is how can I install them? Synaptic Package Manager only allow cdrom installation maybe someone know how to do this?

I believe you'll need to use the command line and the dpkg program. But the
parameters escape my mind. There used to be a gnome app that allowed you
to double click on .deb files to get them installed, but can't remember the name
of it. :-(
See if you can find the man file for dpkg and read up on that to install those.

You should just be able to browse to the folder containing the .deb files and double-click on them if you have the current version of Ubuntu.
Failing that, you can do put them in a folder somewhere, open up a terminal as above (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and change to the directory containing to .deb files using the 'cd' command, then type in:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Which uses the 'dpkg' (Debian Package) tool to install all files ending in '.deb'.
