Intel 64 bit compiler will not install on ubuntu 64

Asked by John Gary

Attempt to install intel 64-bit Fortran compiler on ubuntu 64-bit OS yields error message from the intel installer:
32 bit command and libraries not found, g++ and libstdc++.so.5. I installed g++ and found libstdc++.so.6 library in a lib32.directory. Might this compiler install if I copy the *.so.6 to *.so.5, or is this dangerous?

yes, symlinking .so.5 to .so.6 (asuming you have .6) is a good way to get around stuff. You can always delete the link if its bad.

Can you help with this problem?
