ros-virtual-cam problems on catkin_make. ros.h not found, CMakeLists.txt not a suspect?

I had ros-virtual-cam workin right out of the box. Since then, my system broke and I had to format my drive and reinstall. I rebuilt my catkin workspace from scratch and also installed libfreenect2 along with its requirements and some optional requirements (CUDA fixed the video card issues I was having previously! Yay!). My catkin_ws/src currently makes with just the iai_kinect2 package inside it. But, when I download the package from the answers on that link and run my catkin_make, I get the following errors:

which is weird because this same exact download worked perfectly the first time under essentially the same system before and tried to follow all install instructions meticulously (new-ish Linux user here). Ubuntu 16.04 and ROS Kinetic. I am afraid this problem stems from something deeper than just an incorrect CMakeLists.txt, but don't know enough to investigate. I would appreciate it if you guys could help me work through this so that I can once again use kinect2_bridge and ros-virtual-cam to have a video device on my system. I will remain active on this post until this issue is solved. Thank you all in advance.

PS.. I did not follow any of the instructions on the link to "Setup a workspace:". I already setup my workspace, why would I catkin_init_workspace again?
