blackbox install problems

[yourgod17]

Hi. Im using Mandrake 9.0 and Im trying to install blackbox. When I type ./configure I get an error message about not being able to create executeables, and when I check the error log, this is the error:

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory


How can I fix this? Thanx


btw, when I run configure, this is what I get:
[root@localhost blackbox-0.65.0]# ./configure

You're missing some apps needed for your compiler to work autoconf,automake, and gcc+ for starters.
Uhhh? Why don't you use an rpm? If you don't have it on your distro that must mean the "Mandrake Team" dropped the ball again. On 8.2 they put on "bbkeys" but not blackbox. Brilliance on parade? If not go to http://www.rpmfind.net. You'll be spending a lot of time on that site.

autoconf, automake and, of course, g++ are included in the Mandrake 9 distribution. You can probably get all of them in one swell foop by installing the "development" packages from the software installer. Or, you can search (I find "in descriptions" to be best) for autoconf, automake, and g++ successively.

I didnt even see anything related to g++ when I installed Mandrake, but I only downloaded the first ISO which I guess was the basics to get you running. Im downloading the other 2 right now and tomorrow I'll see if I can find g++ on the CDs
