Karin,

It would appear you don't have a complete developer kit on
your computer.  "g++" is the c++ compiler form of GCC.  It
is installed by default on most linux system with the developer
option.  Perhaps you can review the packages available for
your system, and install anything that seems like a GNU C++
compiler package.

Best regards,
