Bug Description
Binary package hint: command-not-found
From a local IRC channel:
<fivemack> I ran 'g++', which said 'you should install pentium-builder'; apt-get install pentium-builder has left me with what looks like a cross-build environment, where /usr/bin/g++ links to builder-c++ which is a script which calls g++-real which doesn't exist.
This is obviously a bug; it should have recommended g++ in preference, since g++ is in main while pentium-builder is in universe.
Furthermore, I would argue that if a command is available in multiple packages then it should tell you this, rather than arbitrarily selecting one.
