This is not required, g++ is build-essential and Debian Policy says about 
build-essential packages:

  "It is not necessary to explicitly specify build-time relationships
  on a minimal set of packages that are always needed to compile,
  link and put in a Debian package a standard "Hello World!" program
  written in C or C++.  The required packages are called
  _build-essential_, and an informational list can be found in
  `/usr/share/doc/build-essential/list' (which is contained in the
  `build-essential' package)."

Grüße,
Frank
