A little more detail about the package you are trying to make would be helpful.

Based on the output it looks like you may have not declared a dependency correctly, or declared TinyXML as a dependency but do not have TinyXML installed or set up correctly.

First, I would look here: http://wiki.ros.org/tinyxml

That will probably solve your problem.

Otherwise, I would take a look here for an overview: http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/package.xml
