问题
I need to install the latest version of GCC on Linux Mint 13. I found some useful terminal commands for Ubuntu 12.04, but it seems that nothing similar for Mint exists on the Internet...
Edit: I solved the problem, so, in order to help everybody else, write these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install g++-4.7 c++-4.7
And everything works fine. :)

I built it from source when I did this not too long ago.
I followed the instructions here, but I downloaded and extracted gcc 4.7.2 first instead of last and replaced steps 3 to 5 with running this script that comes with it (which does those steps for you):
gcc-4.7.2/contribs/download_prerequisites
You can download the gcc sources from one of the mirror sites: http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html
Edit: added the instructions in-post
Download and extract g++-4.7.2
$sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib m4
In order to compensate for insufficient path information, added this to .bashrc
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu export
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu export
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu
Add these symlinks for the same reason:
$sudo ln -s /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/gnu/stubs-32.h /usr/include/gnu
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/crti.o /usr/lib/crti.o
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/crt1.o /usr/lib/crt1.o
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/crtn.o /usr/lib/crtn.o
$sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmpc.so.3 /usr/lib/libmpc.so.3
run gcc-4.7.2/contribs/download_prerequisites
configure, make, make install

To find a specific package type
apt-cache search "package"
In your case "gcc". Mine showed at least 40 different gnu compiler packages to choose from. The one it sounds like you want is gcc-4.7-base. Also you could update apt-get before searching.
sudo apt-get update
