[ros-users] Problem while compiling pcl_tutorials

[Radu Bogdan Rusu]

Asilx,

A few things that come to mind:

  * why are you trying to build pcl_tutorials? Did you install from source (via rosinstall) or from debs? If the latter 
they are already built for you;

  * are you using the latest versions in CTurtle?

  * I don't really understand this error. Line 89 is:
  89   template <typename PointT> inline void transformPointCloud (const pcl::PointCloud<PointT> &cloud_in, 
pcl::PointCloud<PointT> &cloud_out, const Eigen3::Affine3f &transform);

Can you confirm that you have eigen3 installed on your system? What does this return?:

$ roscd eigen3 && cat Makefile | grep TAR | grep build

it should be:
TARBALL     = build/eigen3.0-beta2.tar.bz2

  * finally, if you're interested in PCL, check the installation instructions at http://www.ros.org/wiki/perception_pcl 
and http://www.ros.org/wiki/perception_pcl_addons. Because the <point_cloud_perception> stack in CTurtle is frozen, we 
are not maintaining it any more, and you wont find the latest goodies there. :)

  * oh also, our preferred communication media for PCL-related issues is pcl-users at code.ros.org. Thanks!


Cheers,
Radu.
