When I tried to install that package I got:
~# apt-get install libstdc++-11-dev

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libstdc++-11-dev : Depends: gcc-11-base (= 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) but 
11.4.0-2ubuntu1~18.04 is to be installed
                     Depends: libgcc-11-dev (= 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 
but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


I have upgraded this system twice, so there were several old packages.  
After I removed gcc-11-base and retried that command it worked, 
reinstalling the gcc packages.  It made it through the configuration and 
is now chewing through the build.

Thanks!
