Clang++ Error

Hi everyone!

I was following this tutorial to install Unreal Engine on my Linux Mint 19.1 machine. I was able to run ./Setup.sh and ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh successfully, however after running make, I received the following error:

/home/anson/UnrealEngine/Engine/Extras/ThirdPartyNotUE/SDKs/HostLinux/Linux_x64/v13_clang-7.0.1-centos7/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld:

(I’m not sure what’s up with all the centos7 references, especially considering I’m running Linux Mint.)I looked up the error and found this thread where the problem was solved by running

ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so

(which I ran as sudo). I ran make again, but received the same error. So, I unlinked (I think) the symlink that I made.

Just out of curiosity, I typed clang into the terminal, and received the following error (IDK if it’s related, or if it has to do with that symlink I tried to make):

Traceback (most recent call last):

Original exception was:

    from CommandNotFound import CommandNotFound
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/CommandNotFound.py", line 19, in <module>

Thanks! I appreciate the help.
