Attempting to build Coin-3.1.3
I'm trying to build/install Coin-3.1.3 so I can later install FreeCAD.
I have an RHEL 6 system that's up-to-date, but I keep getting the follwing error when attempting to configure Coin:
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
I've been reading online that it means I don't have a c++ compiler installed, but the process of getting one from RHEL is a bit frustrating. There doesn't seem to be one, comnprehensive C++ package to install.
Can someone give me some guidance on this?
Thanks

The C++ compiler is in the package gcc-c++.
Running yum install gcc-c++ should get it for you.
Running g++ command returns "command not found"

Yes that's correct. You need the RHEL 6 Workstation channel (the relevant RHEL5 channel is also detailed on the above kbase solution).
If your account doesn't have access to the Workstation channel, Red Hat Sales should be able to help you out.
