Welcome to LQ.

Either a package or some files are missing /// corrupt.

Please try this : # yum reinstall \
cpp gcc libgcc gcc-c++ glibc-devel glibc-common glibc-headers kernel-headers

.

without knowing what you did it is basically impossible to say
a few guesses

1)you did not issue the correct commands ?
the fix ??? unknown

2)you did not install the required prerequisites to build the software ?
the fix ??? unknown

3)you did not install the full gcc tool chain ?
for that

Code:

su -
yum groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"

double check the spelling from the grouplist

Code:

yum grouplist

as to this ????

Code:

I am working on rpm build in Centos....!

?? what ???

use yum to install rpmbuild

This does not help the OP, as MinGW is for Windows.

Which version of centos u are using.
You probably need to install the updated g++ package from 5.2 onwards

Meaningful use of g++ requires more packages installed than just gcc/g++. I don't know the correct list of such packages, but knudfl's list in post #2 of this thread looks very plausible. Section (3) of JohnVV's post #3 also looks somewhat plausible.

The rest of the help you have gotten so far doesn't look very helpful to me. I'm posting mainly to help you focus on the constructive earlier replies rather than get lost in the rest.
