hi Steven,

Are you sure that you're using the version of opencv2 that you intend
to?  Try `rospack find opencv2` to verify the package path.  You can
query the build flags manually like so: `rospack export --lang=cpp
--attrib=cflags opencv2`.  In my cturtle installation, I get both
includes:

-I/u/gerkey/code/ros-cturtle/all/vision_opencv/opencv2/opencv/include
-I/u/gerkey/code/ros-cturtle/all/vision_opencv/opencv2/opencv/include/opencv

Moving up the chain, you can query the build flags for visp (which
should include the build flags for opencv2): `rospack export
--lang=cpp --attrib=cflags visp`.
