[ros-users] Problem with a Package Installation

[shahmi]

Hi,

Thanks a lot Tinne for the guide. However, I am having the installation problem. Below is the output after doing what you have suggested. BTW, I am currently running cturtle. Do you have any idea regarding this? I also have tried to "cmake" first prior to "rosmake", but still with no luck. 

Thanks in advance.

THE OUTPUT:

Hi,

I've been trying to install the package "srl_people_tracker_0.2" found from "http://www.ros.org/browse/details.php?name=srl_people_tracker_0.2" for several days. Unfortunately, I have not yet got got it installed in my local machine. 


These are my tweaks and their corresponding output:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:4 (add_subdirectory):
  add_subdirectory given source "srl_source" which is not an existing

  directory.


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

It seems that it was complaining about "srl_source" but I've given so many tries by replacing the term "srl_source" with my
 "srl_people_tracker_0.2" directory which is /home/shah/Downloads/srl_people_tracker_0.2.

Any help is highly appreciated..



Do not run just cmake, the code is not downloaded yet!
Just use the rosmake command:
rosmake srl_people_tracker_0.2
This will download the code and build and install everything.

PS: if you are using cturtle you will likely get a problem: just let me know
