[cod] Debian libstdc++.so.5 missing

[Matthew]

Sorry guys, im gonna top post this...

Here is my apt-cache search

hexagon:~# apt-cache search libstdc++
gccchecker - Memory access debugger for C language development
libg++2.8.1.3-dbg - The GNU C++ extension library - debugging files
libgmp3-dev - Multiprecision arithmetic library developers tools
libstdc++2.10-dbg - The GNU stdc++ library (debugging files)
libstdc++2.10-dev - The GNU stdc++ library (development files)
libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 - The GNU stdc++ library
libstdc++5 - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3
libstdc++5-3.3-dbg - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (debugging files)
libstdc++5-3.3-dev - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (development files)
libstdc++5-3.3-doc - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (documentation files)
libstdc++5-3.3-pic - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (shared library 
subset kit)
libstdc++5-dbg - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (debugging files)
libstdc++5-dev - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (development files)
libstdc++5-doc - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (documentation files)
libstdc++5-pic - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (shared library subset kit)
libstdc++6 - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3
libstdc++6-dbg - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (debugging files)
libstdc++6-dev - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (development files)
libstdc++6-doc - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (documentation files)
libstdc++6-pic - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (shared library subset kit)

What we need from here is about half way down...
libstdc++5 - The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 <- this!!!!!

So what we run is this...

apt-get install libstdc++5
Should say something along the lines of "also need these dependeceies, I 
also recommend these, and "I will ALSO install these"

Just hit Y or type Yes for it to continue and let it download and update 
the packages.

Thsi should solve your problem.
