G++/GCC installed but still: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory

Full error message:

arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory



So I have gotten this error message while trying to build a c++ project on my machine shortly after a home directory deletion and recovery on Ubuntu 18.04. I'm doubtful that this is because of something in my environment since I built my program not too long ago with the same settings. After researching the error, I found that pretty much everyone says that it's because I have either not installed gcc/g++, incorrectly installed gcc/g++, or have a version mismatch between gcc/g++.



However this appears to not be my problem:



jayz@joshz:/usr$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04) 7.3.0

I have also tried reinstalling both gcc and g++ but still the same error appears.



I have also tried:



sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall build-essential


I have in fact found the cc1plus file on my system in multiple places:



jayz@joshz:/usr$ locate cc1plus
/home/jayz/raspi/sysroot/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.9/cc1plus
/home/jayz/raspi/tools/arm-bcm2708/arm-bcm2708-linux-gnueabi/libexec/gcc/arm-bcm2708-linux-gnueabi/4.7.1/cc1plus

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/cc1plus


so perhaps it's a linker issue?



One thing that I have noticed is that I have no /usr/local/libexec or /usr/libexec directories but I am not sure if this is a problem or what it might imply.
