Title:
  no symlink for g++ is created when g++-4.7 package manually  installed

Status in “command-not-found” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gcc-4.7” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Freshly installed Ubuntu: 12.10-beta2, later updated  amd64

  =======================
  1. 

  g++ symlink not created in /usr/bin directory, when the package
  g++-4.7 was manually install (sudo apt-install g++-4.7)

  Remedy: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/g++-4.7 /usr/bin/g++
  ========================

  2.

  g++ is usually not installed as usually.

  Entering g++ in terminal suggests only pentium-builder package, which
  unfortunately does not provide installation of any package that
  contains g++
