g++ missing

Hi, I'm trying to compile a python extension with cython. The extension is written in c++ and therefore requires g++ Can that be installed? many thanks

A working g++ installation is going to have to wait. We're working towards a new environment format that will be freer and include more stuff, but until that's ready, the g++ dependencies make its installation impractical.

hi do we have any update?

This is year 2021, 8 years after this question was asked.

I am still seeing errors because of lacking of g++.

Looks like the reasons presented by Glenn in 2013 are still valid.
