libstdc++.so.5 HELP!

[majkmil]

I am trying to install turboprint and I get this error ( error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared library no such file ). I think it is part of a gcc library but I installed everything I could find without sucess. Does anyone Know where I can get thus file and where to put it? I think it is /usr/bin/ but not sure.

there is a libstdc++5-3.3-dev package that may contain it. i think its part of gcc 3.3

Thanks, I just installed evrything that had to do with gcc and libstdc and it worked! I hope it doesn't cause any problems installing all that stuff but I thik t will be ok. I have read on the forums and on the web that some are having similar problems installing RealPlayer. That one I gave up on. Unless you have a suggestion. Thank you

Thanks for the information..the libstdc++5-3.3-dev package you suggested did indeed have the libstdc++.so.5 library in it. Appreciate the help.
