You need to install ROS 1.

It looks like rosbag2_bag_v2_plugins is looking for its dependency roscpp

This means that you don't have ROS 1 (properly) installed. As is mentioned is a requirement here.

If you install rosbag2_bag_v2_plugins from the bloomed debian package like ros-humble-rosbag2-bag-v2-plugins (on Ubuntu), it will automatically install what you need from ros-noetic-*. But since you are doing it from source, and since rosdep can't help you, you need to install ROS 1 manually as as a separate step.

Thank you so much for your answer. I already have ros1 Noetic installed also roscpp is available as a dependency in my system. – draj Dec 01 '22 at 20:13
But, I will have a look at it by installing it again. – draj Dec 01 '22 at 20:13
Did you source ROS 1? https://github.com/ros2/rosbag2_bag_v2#building-the-ros-1-plugin – Aposhian Dec 03 '22 at 13:54
