System: Debian GNU/Linux (unstable).
I have g++-3.3 in /usr/bin. But running
perl Configure.pl --cxx=/usr/bin/g++-3.3
doesn't work even .. it says
Checking MANIFEST.....................................................done.
Setting up Configure's data structures................................done.
Tweaking settings for miniparrot......................................done.
Loading platform and local hints files................................done.
Determining nongenerated header files.................................done.
Determining what C compiler and linker to use.........................done.
Determining if your C compiler is actually
gcc........................Linker failed (see test.ldo) at
lib/Parrot/Configure/Step.pm line 336
Parrot::Configure::Step::cc_build() called at
config/auto/gcc.pl line 31 Configure::Step::runstep('undef',
'undef') called at lib/Parrot/Configure/RunSteps.pm line 111
Parrot::Configure::RunSteps::runsteps('Parrot::Configure::RunSteps',
'debugging', 1) called at Configure.pl line 405
sri@infinity:/space/one/tmp/parrot-0.1.1$
And test.ldo contains "Can't exec "c++": No such file or directory at
lib/Parrot/Configure/Step.pm line 279."
Finally I symlinked g++-3.3 to c++ to get rid of this error.
