[libxml++] problem in compiling basic C++ with libxml++ library

[Fabrizio L. <Fab...@Au...>]

 Hello,

I apologize for the very basic problem but I am just at the beginning with
C++.
I am trying to use the libxml++ library and I thought to have a look at the
examples. I have downloaded and installed the debian packages available on
http://mirror.raw.no/gnome2.2/, then I have written a very simple source
like this:

#include <libxml++/libxml++.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
return 0;
}

I compile it with g++ -Wall -o xml xml.cc `pkg-config --libs --cflags
libxml++-1.0` and i get a lot of errors while linking:

/usr/lib/libxml++-0.1.so: undefined reference to `__cxa_rethrow'
/usr/lib/libxml++-0.1.so: undefined reference to `std::uncaught_exception()'

Could you please help me to realize where is the mistake? I am wondering
that I
get so many errors from a simple source like this and I don't know exactly
if it
is my fault or maybe the debian packager did something wrong in putting the
right dynamic library (I see /usr/lib/libxml++-0.1.so, so version 0.1).
Thanks
in advance for your help.
