Hello Ardupilot community!
I am trying to build the ArduCopter firmware, but I am having some issues. At first, I was following a Youtube video, but I then realized that things have changed a bit, and I followed up the steps listed on the website, this link:
http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/building-setup-linux.html
(I am using Ubuntu 18.10).
Most of the steps were successful, however, I am facing some issues. At first, I didn’t know which board to select… Pixhawk1 or pxf? (I am assuming pxf was px4-v2 previously).
I decided to configure waf for Pixhawk1 (I am using the original Pixhawk with px4 installed).
But when I first tried to build the firmware I got this error:

I tried removing and re-installing gcc-arm-none-eaib, but with no use, I tried to use the compiler in the website, still no use, I installed and removed cmake, g++, and still all efforts are in vain… And nothing changed. I am pretty sure the issue is something with the compiler, but I don’t know where exactly.
I tried another path, which is to configure the waf to change the borad to pxf, and this is the result I got:
Setting top to : /home/osboxes/ardupilot
Setting out to : /home/osboxes/ardupilot/build
Autoconfiguration : enabled
GCOV code coverage analysis : no
Setting board to : pxf
Using toolchain : arm-linux-gnueabihf
Checking for ‘g++’ (C++ compiler) : not found
Checking for ‘clang++’ (C++ compiler) : not found
could not configure a C++ compiler!
(complete log in /home/osboxes/ardupilot/build/config.log)
Which means it cannot even find a C++ compiler, which doesn’t make senes because I have already installed them. (I also did the step of adding the bin file of gcc-none-arm-eabi to my directory, but it’s all the same)
I would be grateful if you could help me!
Thank you!
Edit 1: The build command works fine for SITL.
