Dear all, I'm trying to build a kinect-version of ROS on CrunchBangLinux (Ubunutu 9.04 uname -a output: Linux linux 2.6.28-19-generic #66-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 17:39:04 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux). I followed the manuals http://www.ros.org/wiki/cturtle/Installation/Ubuntu and http://www.ros.org/wiki/kinect. Everything went smooth as far as i see but as soon as i try to do the last step on http://www.ros.org/wiki/kinect: Build ROS-kinect: . ~/kinect-devel/setup.sh rosmake kinect --rosdep-install i get the following error: faebser@linux:~$ . ~/kinect-devel/setup.sh faebser@linux:~$ rosmake kinect --rosdep-install [ rosmake ] Packages requested are: ['kinect'] [ rosmake ] Logging to directory/home/faebser/.ros/rosmake/rosmake_output-20110202-113208 [ rosmake ] Expanded args ['kinect'] to: ['kinect_pcl', 'kinect_calibration', 'freenect', 'kinect_camera'] [ rosmake ] Generating Install Script using rosdep then executing.
