Yes, This is most likely your problem. It appears that you have a tf
publisher from map to base_footprint, and another publisher from
odom_combined to base_footprint. So the base_footprint frame has two
parents. In our setup we have amcl publish the transform from map to
odom combined, and the robot pose ekf publish the transform from
odom_combined to base_footprint. What setup are you running? Did you
reconfigure amcl to publish a different tf transform?
