Eclipse Profiling Tools Eclipse TPTP fails with Ubuntu Lucid

Eclipse Profiling Tools Eclipse TPTP do not work with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (Ubuntu 10.04) as supplied.

After installing the Eclipse TPTP plugin, when selecting an appropriate Unit Test class and using 'Profile As--->JUnit Test' A dialog box is show with the following error in the 'Monitor' tab:

IWAT0435E An Error occurred when connecting to the host.

The cause for this is that lib32stdc++5 is missing from the Ubuntu Lucid and Karmic Distributions, and the pre-compiled code in the Eclipse TPTP plugin requires this to be on the system. The missing library can be installed as follows:

mkdir /tmp/libstdc++5
cd /tmp/libstdc++5
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_amd64.deb
