Ah, looking back, so he claims.

What happens if you do apt-get --reinstall install g++-3.2 then?

Maybe it wasn't installed properly. Can you run g++ from the shell
prompt? If so, then the configure script (if any) and/or the Makefiles
are possibly doing something funky with PATH.

Maybe you have a g++-3.2 binary, and g++ is supposed to symlink to it,
and said symlink is missing...

maybe run dselect? I find it easier than apt for resolving dependencies
(apt by default doesn't show 'recommends' or 'suggests' for packages,
although can be made to IIRC)

apt-get --reinstall install g++ g++-3.2 wouldn't hurt though...

I'm looking for a flatmate - don't suppose you're interested?
