Building from source fails on Pop!_OS

[jwoertink]

Following the directions on the README

I got this error:

What version of clang is this?

[jwoertink]

❯ clang --version
Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin

[emeryberger]

Try this?

apt-get install build-essential

(I can't install Pop!_OS since the ISO is Intel only.)

[jwoertink]

Looks like I'm up-to-date on that.

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 14 not upgraded.

Also, I'm not running on Intel. I'm not sure about the ISO, but Pop itself seems to run fine.

For all intents and purposes, AMD and Intel are the same (same instruction set: "x86-64"). AFAICT there is not a distro of Pop for the Mac M1 that I can run in a VM, so I can't easily debug this.

How about trying this: sudo apt install libstdc++-dev.

[jwoertink]

Ah! Ok. That makes sense then.

Alright, so trying that, and I got this error:

Package libstdc++-dev is a virtual package provided by:
  libstdc++-9-dev 9.5.0-1ubuntu1~22.04
  libstdc++-12-dev 12.1.0-2ubuntu1~22.04
  libstdc++-10-dev 10.4.0-4ubuntu1~22.04
  libstdc++-11-dev 11.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04.1
You should explicitly select one to install.

E: Package 'libstdc++-dev' has no installation candidate

So I installed libstdc++-12-dev and that looks like it fixed it! Or, at least I was able to run make now :joy: I actually abandoned my original use for Hoard, but I'm sure it probably works now. I guess this could just be added to the README as some docs. Thanks for looking in to this!
