I am new in ubuntu and I made a mistake installing packages. I found that 
g++-3.3 is installed but g++ isn't!!

here is the output of "which":
mahmood@magma:~/Tools/cgal/$
 sudo which g++-3.3 
[sudo] password for mahmood:
/usr/bin/g++-3.3

I think Joachim is right. I now found that there is no g++ but g++-3.3 is 
installed. I will install g++ ALONE and report problems if any.

Good tip... it is more difficult that I thought

Thanks,
