Compiling Under Debian

Hi,
    What you need to look for are packages like libstdc++-dev.  In general, 
there are two packages for a lot of libraries: the ones without dev in the 
name just contain the shared library itself, the dev ones will have headers 
and other things a developer using the library would need.
Hope this helps,
Zack.
