Test to see if you have a C++ compiler installed to your Linux system?

Which g++
Which c++

$ which c++

/usr/bin/c++

$ which g++

/usr/bin/g++

If no c++ or g++ compiler found installed in binary programs directory like '/usr/bin/" Then CMAKE cannot determine the correct path to the C++ compiler.

$ which c++

/usr/bin/which: no c++ in (/home/fred/.local/bin:/home/fred/bin:/home/fred/.local/bin:/home/fred/bin:/usr/share/Modules/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin)

$ sudo apt-get install c++ or for Fedora29 $ sudo dnf install c++

I would say you don't have any C++ compiler installed. Then CMAKE can verify that you have a C++ compiler installed into your Linux System

For Fedora29 Linux, I typed c++ on bash shell terminal input line

$ c++ bash: c++: command not found...

Install package 'gcc-c++' to provide command 'c++'? [N/y] y
