I can confirm that it doesn't need them, I was able to remove those offending lines and get it working, I will file a ticket.

I will also file a ticket for another issue I found with that package.  On my setup I had to add this: 



 find_package(PythonInterp REQUIRED)



+find_package(PythonLibs REQUIRED)



 list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake)



 find_package(SIP REQUIRED)



 include(SIPMacros)


 
-include_directories(${SIP_INCLUDE_DIR})



+include_directories(${SIP_INCLUDE_DIR} ${PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIRS})
Does this seem like it should be necessary?

The python_orocos_kdl package is a Python wrapper around the
orocos_kdl package, and should not need Eigen.  I believe those lines
in the CMakeList.txt should get removed.  You can file a ticket on
http://orocos.org/kdl.

The orocos_kdl package (which ships with Electric) needs Eigen3, and
does not work with Eigen2. The kdl pacakge (which ships with
Diamondback) only works with Eigen2.

Hope this helps,

Wim
